You Must Get A Degree"- Davido's Father Insists by Nobody: 1:10pm On Feb 27, 2013 |
They say the biggest legacy a parent can leave for his-her children is education. Every parent no matter the circumstances strives hard to live up to that statement and so is Nigerian billionaire businessman Deji Adeleke who seems hell bent on seeing one of his sons David ‘Davido’ Adeleke attending and graduating from University like every other child. The last two years have been a handful for Davido – he didn’t just make a very successful debut in the Nigerian music scene but accelerated to the A-list spot, something that has taken other A-listers years to achieve. He’s released a debut album with chart topping singles, won international awards and performed in and out of the country, what else could he ask for? Well, Davido isn’t doing the asking, his father is; more like demanding. NET sources say Mr Adeleke wants his son to enrol in a University and graduate with a degree. And to make that happen, he has reportedly built an entire department at Babcock University (where he is currently a provost) for Creative Arts which will have Davido and his manager Kamal as the only students for now. We’re told he has also bought a dedicated car which take the boys to and from school as they work to combine academic commitments with show business. Davido and Kamal (who had to go back to school because of Davido’s father’s insistence) are using the opportunity to bond, a source tells us. It is also likely his celebrity cousins Bayo ‘B.Red’ and Sina ‘Sinarambo’ Adeleke will be joining them soon. ‘Davido’s dad believes a lot in his music and HKN. He thinks David can take it to the next level but he also feels education is compulsory foundation for his son’, a source to the family tells us. We learn he has been helping to put up necessary structures that’ll ensure the boys don’t mess things up. For starters, Mr Adeleke insists on meeting with everyone working with his son. And the young pop star has so far been co-operative. Davido’s mother Vera, an educationist herself was until her death in 2003, a lecturer at Babcock University. http://thenetng.com/2013/02/you-must-get-a-degree-davidos-father-insists/ 1 Like 1 Share |

Rubbish!!! Why should Babcock allow davido's father to build a department just for his son. If he wants to show that he has money then he should homeschool him and pay lectureres to lecture him at home. |

alex406: Is he that dull that he doesn't see anything right in getting a degree without been told? Some of the greatest men in life made it without a degree bruv... Nigerians place too much emphasis on certificates which is why the Nigerian job market is full of Graduates with Zero Skills in irrelevant fields. 13 Likes |

Education requires a lot of commitment. I doubt david can commit to studying. We're now in a world were formal education as we have known it is becoming less and less important especially in the arts, creative and world of inventions. How many university professors can tutor a young person to mainstream stardom. Did David Guetta go to school? Did Michael Jackson go to school? Did Britney Spears go to school. Did Bill Gates or Steve Jobs complete their programs even tho they were most definitely smart enuff to finish with first class. Rather than waste money on building a faculty in a formal system, encourage the guy to get trained in MUSON centre, or a dance school etc. Or be tutored by notable producers. PS: I'm an academic and I believe formal education still has its uses in some setting but not too much in arts and talents. 5 Likes |
