Afrobeat star Davido has wedded his long-time heartthrob Chioma Rowland in a lavish event attended by the crème de la crème of the entertainment industry and other top dignitaries.
The event, held on Tuesday at Harbour Point in the Victoria Island area of Lagos State, marked the culmination of years of friendship and, as expected, generated buzz on social media.
Tuesday’s ceremony came about two weeks after Davido confirmed his wedding to the chef. On Sunday, the 30 BG boss posted their pre-wedding photos to set the tone for one of the most anticipated events in the nation’s entertainment circle, tagging it #Chivido2024.
The photos set social media on fire as fans, celebrities, traditional leaders, and politicians congratulated the couple.
#Chivido2024 dominated trends on major social media platforms ahead of the grand event and reached a crescendo when Davido and Chioma tied the knot.
Fans and celebrities alike shared photos and videos from the colourful event, wishing the newlyweds a happy married life.
Chioma’s friendship with Davido dates back several years. But their relationship only became official in 2018 when the singer confirmed it at a public function in October of that year.
The chef has been featured in several music videos by the singer with rumours of breakups popping up many times over the years.
A year later the singer confirmed the relationship, photos of the introduction hit the social media space and in September 2019, Davido proposed to her at a private ceremony. Their wedding was expected to happen in 2020 but was called off due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
