A video showing music star David Adeleke, Davido's reaction to the moment his friend Denis Ukonho, better known as Ego or Tiny, was being lowered into the grave is circulating on social media.

Recall that Davido gave an emotional tribute to his late friend during his funeral service on May 29, 2026.

Shortly after his speech, another video emerged on social media showing Davido, alongside his crew, joining Tiny's family and other mourners in a sombre mood at the graveside.

The highlight was a clip that captured the singer, who appeared to be too emotional to watch, as the coffin was lowered into the grave.

Legit.ng reported that Davido lost his friend Tiny in March after he suffered a heart attack.

Speaking about the deceased, the DMW label boss stated that it was not easy when someone like Tiny passed away, adding that his absence would be deeply felt because of the kind of personality he had.

According to Davido, Tiny was full of energy and presence. He also said he never thought he would speak about Tiny in the past tense.

“I won’t lie, it is not easy when someone like Tiny leaves. His absence is heavy; it doesn’t feel real. A man of so much energy, so much presence. The silence is heavy. He is not someone I ever thought I would be speaking about in the past tense,” he said.
