Davido Pays Tribute To His Late Photographer Fortune

Singer Davido has reacted to the death of his photographer Fortune Umunname who drowned at a photo shoot location in Lagos on Tuesday.

The 28-year-old in an Instagram post on Saturday expressed his grief over the loss.

“I can’t believe you’re gone. Since we met u never left my side. for one day… Your page says it all. You really were all about me like nothing else mattered. You went from a complete stranger to one of my closest confidants within weeks. There is nowhere I entered that you and your lens didn’t enter.

“I can’t even believe I’m writing a tribute to you right now wtf we still had so much more to do. Your workshops. Your studios. Trips. Shows. Scenes. Moments. All of it.

“I can’t believe you didn’t give me the chance to fulfill the rest of my promises to you. my heart is so heavy right now and I’m just so grateful I met you. You truly were the best kid. A rare breed and I’m so grateful that we got to travel the world and create so many iconic moments with you. You are irreplaceable and you are gone now but I will make sure you are never forgotten,” he wrote.

Besides working as Davido’s official photographer, Fortune has worked with other Nigerian celebrities like Naira Marley and Zlatan.

The 24-year-old died three months after Davido’s aid Obama DMW passed away.

Obama died in June 2021 after complaining of shortness of breath, reports said he drove himself to a hospital in the Lekki area of Lagos where he eventually died a few hours later.

In December 2020, Davido’s bodyguard Tijani Olamilekan aka TeeJay died after a battle with an illness.
