Anu Adeleke, who has been widely reported as the alleged daughter of Nigerian singer Davido, has publicly requested a DNA test to verify her parentage.
According to Gists9ja, Anu shared her request on Instagram on Thursday alongside a photo of herself. In the post, she reflected on entering her teenage years and preparing to start school after the holidays.
She highlighted lessons from her mother and grandmother, including guidance to stay away from drugs, alcohol, bad company, and negative behaviour. Anu also revealed that she has endured bullying at school since she was six years old, after informing classmates that her father is David Adeleke. She said the experience caused her significant emotional distress, prompting her to seek professional medical support.
As she grows older, Anu expressed a desire to formally establish her identity. She described the DNA test request as a personal matter between herself and Davido, urging the singer to consider granting her appeal. She also thanked Nigerians who have supported her, emphasizing that the test is important for her peace of mind.
Reports indicate that two DNA tests were previously conducted, both reportedly showing that Davido is not her father. However, Anu’s mother has disputed the results, claiming the tests were falsified and that she was denied the opportunity for an independent verification.
The latest development has reignited public discussion around the singer’s alleged relationship with Anu and the broader topic of celebrity paternity claims in Nigeria.
