Prayers are pouring in for Nigerian singer Mayorkun after a late‑night fire incident at his Lagos mansion reportedly put his family in danger.

According to reports, the fire broke out around 9:35 p.m. on Saturday night shortly after the singer returned from a show in Lagos.

Sources claim that an explosion triggered the fire while Mayorkun, his wife, and children were inside the residence.

Galaxy TV reported that the mansion was engulfed in flames as the family were indoors, sparking widespread concern among fans.

Reports are yet to confirm if they escaped unharmed, though the property continued to burn as emergency responders rushed to the scene.

Videos of the incident have since surfaced online, drawing shock and sympathy from the public.

Many fans and colleagues have taken to social media to send prayers and express relief that the singer and his family survived the frightening ordeal.

Legit.ng previously reported that Mayorkun looked back in retrospect to celebrate David Adeleke, aka, Davido over his impact in his career.

The Awuke crooner was the first person to sign Maryokun to his record label, Davido Worldwide Music, in 2016. The music star later left Davido’s record label and joined Olamide’s record label, YBNL.

In a post making the rounds, Mayorkun marked nine years of releasing his first record, Eleko, which was released under Davido’s record label.

According to singer Mayorkun, nothing remained the same after that for him as a singer.

Also in the post, Mayorkun shared the art cover of his first song, Eleko and penned his short note to Davido. He said, “Thank you for all”.

Recall that Mayorkun has never shied away from speaking about his former record label boss, Davido. He once granted an interview and spoke glowingly on how he lived with Davido for three years.

Davido has also continued to show love and support to Mayorkun despite the fact that he was no longer signed to his record label
