Davido pays Chioma’s bride fee and updates his marriage status on Wikipedia
David Adeleke, better known by his stage name Davido and a well-known Afrobeats musician from Nigeria, has altered his marital status on Wikipedia.
According to reports, Davido completed the customary wedding ceremonies for Chioma on Thursday.
The singer’s new married status and wife’s name have been updated on his Wikipedia article.
On January 5, the artist completed the payment of the bride price (Umunna) for Chioma at Ezeala Odu, Imo State.
In a video that went viral on social media, Chioma’s father was seen on Thursday finishing the Umunna and Umuada ceremonies. This was more proof that the couple was married.
As previously reported in November of last year, the singer married Chioma in secret one month after the passing of their only child, Ifeanyi Adeleke.
There were few family friends present at the traditional wedding, which was held in her father’s home, and photographs were not permitted, according to the article. The tragedy that surrounded their wedding last year prevented Davido from performing his Umunna rites. So, Igbo tradition says that he and Chioma were not legally married.
Remember that Davido had promised to wed Chioma in 2023 before the unfortunate tragedy occurred last year? However, following the death of their son, the musician quickly tied the knot.
