Actress Toyin Adewale, the mother of singer Mayorkun, has disclosed that she initially thought it was a scammer when Davido first contacted her son.

She stated this while discussing Mayorkun’s relationship with Davido and how he rose to fame.

Speaking during her appearance on Talk to B podcast on Saturday, the veteran actress disclosed that she initially thought Davido was a scammer when he first sent a direct message to Mayorkun on social media.

Adewale explained that Davido later called Mayorkun on the phone and arranged a meeting with him, marking the beginning of their relationship.

“After the cover he did went viral, he was with his brother when Davido sent a message, but we thought it was a scammer. Davido later said he would call. I was also with him when Davido called, Mayorkun was so excited and almost went crazy.

“He told Mayorkun to send his measurements that he traveled. But when he returned, Mayowa and his brother went to meet him. That was when he gave them a full box of gifts and money. Although I was scared at the time because I didn’t know who Davido was.

“Mayorkun went back the following day, and that was when they recorded ‘Eleko’. It was easy for Mayorkun because he had been in the choir and had always loved to write poetry. After the recording, he moved in with Davido. After a while, I went there to see where they were staying, Davido was very pleasant and respectful,” she said.
