365NEWS gathered that popular Nollywood actor, Ibrahim Chatta has claimed that singer Davido is richer and more powerful than his billionaire father, Adedeji Adeleke.
Chatta made the claim while advising some young people to respect those occupying elders positions and those in higher authorities irrespective of their age.
While regarding age as just a number, the actor explained that Alexander the Great died young but achieved remarkable feats that many strong and older leaders could not equal.
He also mentioned that although Davido might be younger, he is considered an elder because of his achievement and fame.
Expressing his beliefs, the actor described an elder as someone who has accomplished significant achievements, stating that despite Davido’s father’s billionaire status, the singer is richer and more influential.
“God purposely placed some certain people in some positions, but you guys are looking at their age. It’s not about the age, any younger person that possesses things that belong to elders, is an elder.
“Alexander The Great started ruling at age 20 and died at 33. Everything he achieved, Julius Ceaser, Adolf Hiltler, and others never met up with his achievements but he died very young and completed his lifetime. And you referred to him as a child?
“You are only counting his age but he is an elder. Wizkid is also an elder. I was just looking at the numbers of people surrounding Davido the day I sat with him, I was just seeing how people were ready to be killed just to get to him. He is an elder. Davido’s father is a billionaire that has been doing big things before the singer’s arrival. His father is rich but not as Davido. If his dad is passing by you might not recognise him but if Davido passes here stampede will happen.”

Saying Dad’s rich n wealthy, but d son commands more becos of his fame. Do you knw that Davido has connected his Dad to many Africans’ Presidents and dignitaries in d world? Shatta knws what he is saying. Moreover, u dont knw where d conversation started from, dont just judge from little u heard.”
