Davido’s 11-year-old daughter, Imade Adeleke, has sparked mixed reactions after the singer shared an update showing her driving his luxury Rolls-Royce Cullinan.
The Afrobeats star posted the update on his Instagram Stories on Sunday, October 11. He appeared proud as he captioned the post, “@realimade rolling out heavy on a Sunday.”
In another slide, Davido shared a chat with his daughter, revealing some of the reactions she encountered while driving the car.
Before she went out, the singer had encouraged her to enjoy herself. He told her, “Ok, have fun, love you.”
Imade responded warmly, writing, “Ok, thanks, you are the best dad.”
However, the outing attracted unexpected attention. Imade later informed her father that people were chasing the car.
“People on the street are chasing me,” she told him.
Davido, who appeared to be following her location, responded with three love emojis.
Why People Chased Davido’s Rolls-Royce
The attention may have stemmed from the car’s association with the music star. Some people reportedly assumed Davido was behind the wheel when they spotted his Rolls-Royce Cullinan.
While some may have hoped to catch a glimpse of the singer, others could simply have been interested in the luxury vehicle. Some fans might also have hoped to receive money from the celebrity.

Others took a more relaxed view. They defended the outing and said they would gladly give their own children similar experiences if they had the financial means.
