This donation has drawn widespread attention due to its substantial amount and the notable cause it supports.
The generous contribution was made during a remembrance service held in honor of Esther Adeleke, Adedeji Adeleke’s late mother, at the church’s headquarters in Lagos on Sunday.

This significant financial boost will likely have a lasting impact on the church’s operations and its ability to undertake more ambitious projects in the future.
Taking to social media, Davido expressed his admiration for his father’s philanthropic efforts, particularly towards religious institutions and education. He has often highlighted his father’s commitment to giving back to the community, and this latest donation is a reflection of that enduring dedication.
Commenting on a viral video of the event shared by social media influencer Tunde Ednut, the singer wrote:
“Anything Church or education, no worry, you don cash out.” This comment reflects Davido’s belief in the importance of investing in religious and educational institutions, areas his father has consistently supported.
