David Adeleke, aka Davido, has postponed his upcoming Are We African Yet (A.W.A.Y) festival to honor his late son, Ifeanyi Adeleke.
In a statement posted on the festival’s Twitter account, the singer’s management apologized to fans for the disappointment and promised to make it up to them.
This is part of Davido’s desire to spend more time with his family during this difficult time of mourning, according to the statement.
The statement reads:
“We have made the difficult but necessary decision to postpone A.W.A.Y Festival until November 18, 2023. To all ticket buyers, your tickets will be honoured for the 2023 date. Thank you for understanding, and we look forward to seeing you all in the near future.”
The singer reportedly, on Monday, appeared on Instagram for the first time after he was bereaved to deactivate his late son’s Instagram account and unfollowed DJ Cuppy and Femi Otedola.
