The Autopsy Result Conducted On Davido’s Son Has Been Revealed

Days after the tragic death of Ifeanyi Adeleke, son of Davido and his fiancée, Chioma Rowland, the Lagos State Police Command said the autopsy conducted on the corpse of Ifeanyi Adeleke confirmed that he died as a result of drowning.

The state Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, the police command’s spokesman, made the disclosure after an autopsy was conducted on the corpse of the three-year-old boy.

“The autopsy has been concluded and it’s confirmed that the boy drowned. It was concluded yesterday but the investigation is still ongoing. The two detainees are still with us”, Hundeyin disclosed.

Ifeanyi Adeleke died on Monday, October 31 after he drowned in a swimming pool in his father’s mansion in Banana Island, Lagos state.

It was earlier reported that the two suspects arrested in connection with the death of Ifeanyi Adeleke may face charges for negligence because they were directly in charge of Ifeanyi’s welfare while his parents were away.

However, popular Port Harcourt lawyer and human rights activist, Abakpa Adoyi Matthew, has argued that it will be very difficult to prosecute the domestic workers in charge of looking after the late Ifeanyi Adeleke.

Abakpa opined that if people are prosecuted, Davido should be one of them for exposing his 3-year-old son to a swimming pool which he considered very dangerous to a child of such age. 

Netizens React:

callmechigo: “Nigeria’s investigation system needs upgrading. We are not arguing Ifeanyi didn’t get drowned in the pool but how did he get there? Are there no CCTV cameras to monitor how everything occurred . We need to know if no one saw him walking down the pool that faithful day. Go be with your creator little boy ❤️ Keep resting ️️️️baby.” 

priscilla._: “It’s possible he was led to that pool. I don’t even think he can open the door by himself. The question is, who led him outside? How did he get in the pool? Where is the CCTV footage? All these things should be looked into na.” 

adanze_h: “We are not disputing the fact the little boy was not drowned but we need to know how Ifeanyi got to the pool since they said the doors can’t be open by a 3-year-old baby. We need to know who led him out through that door. How did he got to the pool ??? We need CCTV footage. How is the Nigerian investigation system not giving us details … We gat so many questions ooh but may God comfort David and Chioma.”
