Word has it that the nanny he was left with did not take notice of the boys absence only for her to later find him in the pool – when it was already late. Speaking to popular media outlet, a close family member disclosed that;

The boy was inside water for too long and they pulled him out and rushed him to the hospital

Adding;

By the time they rushed him to Lagoon Hospital

Condolences from friends and family

Although both Chioma and Davido have not issued a press release concerning the alleged death – their friends have since been hinting it could be true judging from the messages theyve been sending the couple. Singer Makun wrote;

Ifeanyi allegedly drowns in pool

The death of a child is unnatural, unfair, and tragic, this hit me so bad.

Well, we can’t really say we understand the kind of pain these two parents are currently experiencing especially since they just celebrated his birthday barely 7 days ago.

Also the incident sounds similar to that of DBanj who also lost his first child to drowning.

Our hearts and prayers to Chioma and Davido.
