One of Nigeria’s top Afrobeats musicians, David Adeleke aka Davido, has tinkered with his relationship status on Wikipedia.
Davido finalised his traditional marriage rites to Chioma Rowland on Thursday and is now officially married.
The Quest Times reports that the singer’s Wikipedia page now includes his new marital status and his wife’s name.
The singer finally paid Chioma’s bride price (Umunna) in full at Ezeala Odu, Imo State, on Thursday, January 5.
Also confirming their marriage in a trending video on social media, Chioma’s father could be seen performing the Umunna and Umuada rites.
It was earlier reported in November last year that the singer secretly got married to Chioma, a month after the death of their only son, Ifeanyi Adeleke.
According to the report, the traditional wedding, which was done in her father’s house, had few family friends in attendance with no cameras allowed.
And because of the circumstances surrounding their marriage last year, Davido could not perform his Umunna rites. As such, according to Igbo culture, he and Chioma weren’t fully married.
Recall that Davido had, last year before the tragic incident, vowed to marry Chioma in 2023, but after their son’s death, the singer speedily wed her.
