Nigerian artist Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo, popularly referred to as Dbanj, stirred emotions at the Trace Awards when he affectionately addressed his close friend and fellow artist, Davido, as “Baba Ibeji.”
This touching gesture was prompted by the recent news of Davido welcoming twins in the United States. The remarkable scene unfolded at the Trace Awards event in Kigali, Rwanda, which serves as a platform to honor African and Afro-inspired music and artists, celebrating their creativity and influence.
Earlier, we reported the joyous news of Davido’s twins’ birth in the United States, as he was seen in a video with his wife, father, and the newborn twins. Within a short span of time, Davido acknowledged the extraordinary nature of this situation and shared his thoughts about it, expressing his faith and the challenges they’ve overcome as a family.
A few days later, at the Trace Awards, D’banj extended his heartfelt congratulations to Davido. The awards ceremony, co-hosted by D’Banj and Angolan global supermodel Maria Borges, featured an impressive lineup of performers, including Davido, Yemi Alade, Black Sherif, Kizz Daniel, and more.
