Afrobeats superstar Davido  has said he and his father disagree about his spending patterns.

The famous songster, who was one of the speakers at the ‘Forbes Under 30’ summit in Botswana, shared this while discussing the impact of his billionaire mogul father, Adedeji Adeleke, on his musical career and showbiz.

He said his dad constantly dishes out advice about ditching ‘wasteful spending’ and investing wisely.

He stated he tells his dad that showbiz is a whole lot different from the normal business dynamics particularly when he expends whooping sums on luxurious items which the father may feel was totally unnecessary.

“He still calls me to make sure that I save here, invest there. For example, I wanted to rent a penthouse and stuff like that. He advised me, ‘You are wasting money by spending on that (rent). Buy it and use it when you are around. Little advice here and there.
