A street boy from Lekki has gone viral after sharing touching memories of how Afrobeats superstar Davido and his wife Chioma treated him and other street boys who used to gather outside their home in Lekki, Lagos.

Dayo Keshiro, popularly known as Lekki Street Boy, shared his account in a video posted on Instagram on Thursday, 13 November 2026 describing how the singer, whose full name is David Adeleke and who goes by the alias OBO, consistently showed kindness to a group of young men who had made a habit of loitering in front of his Lekki Phase 1 Admiralty home.

Davido's neighbours complained about street boys

According to Dayo, the situation became serious when landlords in the neighbourhood sent letters to Davido, demanding he get rid of the boys whose presence and noise had become a disturbance to residents.

One night, around 1 a.m., Davido came outside himself to address them. Rather than chase them away aggressively, he pleaded with them, acknowledging that their behaviour had caused him trouble with the community.

Dayo recalled that despite asking the boys to lower their profile, Davido did not abandon them. The musician would reportedly wake up and quietly buy food for everyone gathered outside, not small chop, but proper meals with chicken and turkey that the boys could not normally afford.

Dayo added that on one occasion after the boys had been asked to stay out of sight, Davido posted on his Instagram story saying he was missing his guys, a moment Dayo described as deeply touching.

Lekki Street Boy: Chioma's secret acts of kindness

Dayo also singled out Chioma for praise, saying she had her own quiet way of showing love. He recalled that whenever she returned home and noticed nobody was watching, she would call the boys over and hand them ₦200,000 in cash. She would then ask them not to tell anyone she had given them the money.

"Aunty Chioma, once she's around, she will look up to see if no one is observing, and tip us with ₦200k. She will even say, 'Don't tell anyone I gave you guys money,'" Dayo said. "That lady is a better lady."
