Apart from Gov Ademola Adeleke's funny dance steps when he was called on stage, the highlight of the event was the moment Davido's dad made a donation of N1bn to the church.

The wealthy energy tycoon noted that he was giving the money in honour of his late mum, Nnenna Esther Adeleke.

According to veteran journalist Dele Momodu, Nnenna Esther Adeleke was the senior mother-in-Israel of the church when she was alive. This position is currently held by Yeyeluwa Modupe Adeleke-Sanni, the younger sister of Davido's dad.
