The couple’s images flooded social media, drawing congratulations from fans, fellow artists, traditional leaders, and politicians.
Chivido2024 dominated trending topics across major social media platforms, reaching a crescendo as Davido and Chioma exchanged vows.
Fans and celebrities alike shared photos and videos from the colorful event, celebrating the newlyweds’ union.
The star-studded guest list included dignitaries from various spheres of life. Notable attendees included the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, elegantly dressed in his signature white attire and beaded crown.
Former Akwa Ibom State Governor Udom Emmanuel, ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo, Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki, Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun, and Senator Daisy Danjuma of Edo South graced the occasion. Seyi Tinubu, the president’s son, was also present.
Celebrities like Patroranking and singer Paul Okoye (Rudeboy) added glamour to the festivities. TV host Ebuka Uchendu served as the compere, ensuring a lively atmosphere throughout the celebration.
Davido and Chioma’s relationship has deep roots, dating back several years. Although their friendship was public knowledge, it officially blossomed into romance in 2018 when Davido confirmed their status at a public event in October. Chioma, a chef, featured prominently in the singer’s music videos, and rumors of breakups occasionally surfaced.
In September 2019, Davido proposed to Chioma during a private ceremony, with plans for a 2020 wedding. However, the COVID-19 pandemic forced them to postpone their plans.
Amidst pregnancy rumors (later denied), Chioma gave birth to their son, Ifeanyi, in October. Tragically, in November 2022, the child passed away in a home accident shortly after turning three.
In October 2023, amidst speculation, Davido and Chioma welcomed a set of twins. A heartwarming video captured the parents leaving the hospital with their babies, prompting an outpouring of congratulations from fans, celebrities, and well-wishers.
Months later, reports of their wedding surfaced, and Davido confirmed the event, solidifying their enduring bond. The #Chivido2024 wedding became a symbol of love, resilience, and celebration for the couple and their fans.
