Afrobeats singer, Davido has shared lessons his father taught him about having faith in God.

In a recent podcast interview with Rollingout, the Awuke singer journeyed into his humble beginnings and how he lived a Christian life despite coming from a very rich family.

He noted that the lessons learnt from his father, helped him overcome various challenges and shaped a better perspective about God.

“My dad is very successful, but he’s an elder in the church. I grew up as a member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. I attended a Christian college.

“I overcame a lot of challenges because of my dad. Initially, I did not understand, but now I’ve come to the realization. I was angry. Sometimes, I was like, ‘Why do bad things happen to good people?’ And my dad told me that you can’t question God.

“I was like, ‘What do you mean you can’t question God?’ And then a year later [after the death of my son, Ifeanyi], we had twins, the biggest album of my career came, and my first Grammy nominations came. Then it started to make sense. People go through different challenges, but just know that God has your back,” he said
