Nigerian musician David Adeleke aka Davido and his heart rob Chioma have revealed plans for their white wedding.
Chioma in a post on her X handle on Monday wrote; “Are you ready for Round 2?
“The Chivido2024 white wedding.”
The couple held their traditional wedding in Nigeria’s commercial city, Lagos, on Tuesday, June 25th.
The wedding was attended by notable people, including former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo, Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and Davido’s uncle Ademola Adeleke, who is also the governor of Osun State. Two other governors also attended the ceremony.
The other prominent guests were musicians Don Jazzy and Patoranking, football star Victor Osimhen, and Seyi Tinubu, the son of Nigerian President Bola Tinubu.
The ceremony was filled with bright smiles, hearty laughter, dance, networking and gifts. During the wedding rites, Davido assured Chioma’s parents that he would respect and protect her.
The wedding was a culmination of colourful activities including the release of pre-wedding photos and videos on Davido’s Instagram page, where he has nearly 30 million followers.
In a past interview, 31-year-old Davido said he met 29-year-old Chioma before the musician became widely famous. The two met at Babcock University in Nigeria’s southwestern state of Ogun in 2013.
Davido was pursuing a bachelor’s degree course in music, while Chioma was pursuing a bachelor’s degree course in economics at the institution. She later developed an interest in becoming a professional chef.
When Davido and Chioma first met, Davido’s song “Dami Duro” was ruling the airwaves, and his music career was taking off.
In a recent interview, Davido said one of his close friends often teased him that he had everything in life except a wife. The artiste added he was grateful that he met Chioma before becoming famous.
In his words, Davido said: “If I was single today, and I met a lady, I would feel she is probably talking to me because I am Davido, the celebrity who has money.”
