Adedeji Adeleke, father of renowned Afrobeat artist Davido, has donated N1 billion to the Centenary Endowment Fund of a Cherubim and Seraphim (C&S) Church in Lagos.
The announcement was made during a thanksgiving service at the church’s headquarters in Lagos on Sunday, honoring his late mother, Esther Adeleke.
Adeleke made the significant donation in memory of his mother, Esther Adeleke, who was a revered figure in the C&S Church.
“On behalf of our late mother, senior mother in Israel, late Mrs. Esther Adeleke, we want to contribute to the centenary endowment fund, the sum of N1 billion,” he stated during the service.
Esther Adeleke, originally from Akwete in Ukwa East Local Government Area of Abia State, founded a C&S Church in Ede, Osun State.
She held the esteemed title of Senior Mother-in-Israel within the church, a role now carried on by her daughter, Modupe Adeleke-Sanni.
This generous contribution highlights the Adeleke family’s strong connection to the church and their commitment to honoring Esther Adeleke’s legacy.
