According to a source, Ifeanyi’s cook and nanny are still being detained by the police, who intend to request an autopsy to ascertain the true reason of the boy’s demise.
The police may perform an autopsy in light of the controversy surrounding the passing of Ifeanyi Adeleke, the three-year-old son of David Adeleke (Davido), Nigeria’s top hip-pop artist, and his finance, Chioma Rowland.
In order to ascertain whether Ifeany died as a result of being accidentally dragged into a swimming pool at his father’s home in the Banana Island neighbourhood of Lagos State, the police have scheduled an autopsy.
According to a source with knowledge of the situation, an autopsy is routinely performed by the police in cases like these; but, if the boy’s family objects, the police will abandon their plans. He stated:

“Though the family members are not saying anything yet because they are still in shock but until anybody says stop, the standard procedure is to conduct an autopsy and we are going to follow that procedure just like in any case of death.”
The insider went on to say that while the chef and nanny are still being held in custody, six out of Davido’s eight domestic helpers who had been invited for interrogation earlier had been arrested.
It was the nanny’s responsibility to look after the youngster (Ifeanyi), therefore how could she have been careless if the boy had left the house without her knowledge?
