Nigerian singer Davido reflects on his rise to fame and reveals that he met his wife, Chioma, before becoming successful. In an interview, Davido opens up about his humble beginnings and the impact of his relationship with Chioma on his career.
In a video posted on social media, Nigerian singer Davido said that he doesn’t think he would have been able to enter a relationship if he hadn’t met his wife, Chioma.
He said, “I have a friend, he is like single, anytime I am on the phone with my wife, he would say he has everything in the world, but a wife is what he is missing.
“I met my wife before I had money, but I was telling myself if I didn’t meet her before then and now I am single, and I meet a girl, it wouldn’t be the same. I would feel the lady is talking to me because I am Davido and I have money.
“My own success is when I am doing something, and I see everybody around me. All these people around me were there when I was nothing and they see me now, that is a sweet thing to me.
“Whether they are awards, or concerts or when I bought my first Rolls Royce, I went there with my cousin like back then we used to talk about how we will buy this and that is the feelings. It’s not like when you blow up and start hanging out with different people. You need to keep the people who were there with you since grinding.
“I want to see the people that knew me as nothing. Now they see me as something.”
