Afrobeats megastar David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has opened up in a touching statement about love, loyalty, and his journey to fame, giving fans a rare glimpse into the man behind the music. In a candid reflection, Davido spoke about the importance of staying grounded and holding on to the people who believed in you before the spotlight. The global music icon credited his wife, Chioma, as a steady presence in his life long before he became a household name. “I met my wife when I had not yet made it. I was still struggling with life,” Davido shared. “I mean, my father's money has never been my money. I have worked to be where I am today, and I met my wife, Chioma, when I was still struggling to afford the things I am affording today.” The "Unavailable" crooner’s words cut through the often glitzy portrayal of celebrity life, grounding his success story in themes of humility and gratitude. His recognition of Chioma’s unwavering presence speaks volumes in an industry where relationships often buckle under the weight of fame. He also spoke about a wealthy friend who, despite his material success, lacks something invaluable—genuine companionship. “I have a friend who is very rich, but the only thing that is missing in him is that he does not have a wife. And each time he sees me and my wife talking on the phone, he will be like, ‘Ah, I did it though.’” Davido didn’t just stop at telling his own story. He issued a powerful piece of advice to fans and anyone chasing dreams: “One advice I would give to many people is that when you make it, those that were there when you were struggling — they should still be in your life because those are real people.” He added that if he had waited until after achieving fame to find love, it would be difficult to tell who was genuinely in it for him and not his success. “Had it been I was still to have a woman in my life, I would just be like, this woman is there because she knows that I am Davido already. So, I keep all the people I have been with all along, rather than the ones I will meet.” Davido's heartfelt message serves as a reminder that even in the whirlwind of fame, real love, loyalty, and true friendship remain priceless. His story is not just about hits and headlines, it's about holding on to your roots, your people, and the love that stood the test of time.
