A few months ago, popular artiste, Adebanji Oyebanjo (D'banj) and his wife, Didi rolled out the drums for the auspicious celebration of the first birthday their son, Daniel. An elaborate party was thrown to mark the occasion. As expected, the toddler's birthday party attracted many celebrities, close friends and family members.
On Sunday, June 24, the sad news of the demise of Little Daniel hit the Internet, dousing the frenzy built from Nigeria's Super Eagles victory over the Iceland team at the ongoing World Cup. Reportedly, the boy was left under the care of much older children of family friends who paid his mother (Didi) a casual visit.
She had left Daniel with them with the understanding that they were capable of looking after him until she returned.
Daniel's body was later recovered from the indoor, un-barricaded pool at their Ikoyi residence. He was pronounced dead on their arrival at the hospital.
D'banj wasn't in the country at the time. He was thousands of miles away, attending the Black Entertainment Television (BET) Awards held that same day in Los Angeles, California, USA.
In his reaction following his son's death, D'banj noted: "Trying times, but my God is always and forever faithful. "
Following the intelligent report.. Its been observed that little Daniel was not pushed or remote by anyone but was due to negligence. Nevertheless, investigation is still going on.
