Pointing to the seat number “0F” on the British Airways boarding pass, she laughed nd said:
“I don’t know if David has even entered the economy before to be honest with you… This was ages ago. Master David, and this is good because we were still taking British Airways to get to Yankee.”
Sharon didn’t stop there. She also shared her late mother’s business card and chequebook from 1995, adding:
“Oh you guys, this is such a great day… I just found my mom’s chequebook. See, she was balancing it out, 5/12/1995. I know she spent 70k that day, which is probably a lot actually. 1995, okay baller.”
The video was filled with playful family anecdotes. Sharon recalled Davido’s mischievous childhood, saying:
“Oh David, this is when he was really, really naughty and he was biting people in this era. Oh my God, he was so bad.”
