Davido is the least arrogant of his peers even when he has the credentials to be the most arrogant – Actor Patrick Doyle

Actor, Patrick Doyle says singer Davido is the least arrogant among his pairs in the music industry. 

In a post shared on Facebook, Patrick said even though Davido has the credentials to be the most arrogant given the aristocracy of his antecedents, he has remained humble when compared to his ‘street brought up peers.’

His post reads;

‘’I remember attending a birthday party for Segun Awolowo in his illustrious grandfather’s stately home in Ikene. In the hall adjacent to the mansion where the party took place was an inscription “Eebudola” under a drawing of the zodiac sign of Pisces. For whatever reason, that inscription and sign etched itself into my 20 something year old consciousness.

 It was a few years later when I read in an interview that the sage granted what “Eebudola” meant. He explained that he had noticed a pattern in his life’s trajectory about how that everything his peers and adversaries  used to cast aspersion on him usually turned out to be a blessing for him in the end. The explanation resonated with me profoundly and reinforced my fanatical admiration for the great man.

Bringing it to the present, I have noticed a young man who of late has been on the receiving end of aspersions from his peers. I have also noticed his attitude towards them and  the relentless attacks.  He has, for the most part, maintained a calm disposition and a reluctance to engage his adversaries. I find this to be commendable, and I imagine it is an inherited trait from his father who, though a business mogul, is possibly the most self effacing billionaire around.

The young man, on the other hand, appears to be flashy and brash at first look. However,  showbusiness, his vocation demands he be that way. That said, he is perhaps the least arrogant of his peers even when he has the credentials to be the most arrogant given the aristocracy of his antecedents compared to his street brought up peers

On a few occasions, when he has erred and been corrected by elders, he has humbly redirected his steps and never once retorted rudely to correction. In short, he has displayed all the traits  of a true “Omoluabi” in this regard.

As for the unwarranted abuse from his peers , it appears that the more they attack him and he ignores them, the more his stature as a global star shines. Truly, the Awolowo “Eebudola” concept is working in the life of young David Adeleke, the Eebudola of the entertainment industry.”
