Adedeji Adeleke, the father of ace singer Davido and brother of the Osun State governor-elect, has cautioned his son against giving him an unwanted title.
His younger brother, Ademola Adeleke won the recent Osun gubernatorial election, which took place on Saturday, July 17, after defeating the incumbent, Adegboyega Oyetola, with Davido and him playing active roles in his emergence.
A viral video showing the excited Ademola prostrating for his older brother, Davido’s dad, after he was announced the election winner later surfaced on social media.

The video has elicited reactions from netizens and followers of the ace singer, who noted the respect Davido showed his father after complying with his directive.
