A video showed the musician seated with other parents, as he eagerly watched Imade and her friends take the stage.
Davido was comfortable and fully present, filming bits from the performance while his daughter confidently participated in a stage performance.
This comes just days after Sophia Momodu, Imade's mother, responded to critics who accused her of not allowing her daughter to celebrate with her father, Davido.
Davido, who performed in Saudi Arabia on Saturday, December 13, 2025 and in Abuja, Nigeria, on Sunday, December 14, 2025, flew down to attend his first daughter's school Christmas carol.
