Why Nigerian Afro-pop singer, Davido proposes marriage to girlfriend

David Adeleke, Nigerian Afropop singer better known as Davido, has proposed marriage to his longtime girlfriend, Chioma Avril Rowland.


The 26-year-old singer was seen on his kneel proposing marriage to Chioma in one of the footages he shared on his social media pages on Thursday.

“SHE SAID YES!!!! BIG ROCK #ASSURANCE2020,” Davido wrote, as the wife-to-be was seen wearing a wedding ring in her ring finger.

Last week, the award-winning singer had unveiled plans to wed Chioma in an interview with Beat FM, a popular music radio station in Nigeria.

“We have not started all that plans yet. 2020 is the year for sure,” the singer said.

He also addressed reports that his wife-to-be was pregnant. He neither confirm or debunk the report as he urged Nigerians to be patient.

“Wait and see now. This one is special,” the singer was quoted to have said.

Chioma, 24, was said to have met Davido while studying economics at Babcock University, Nigeria.

Despite having two baby mamas, Davido’s love for Chioma hasn’t faded. He shared their lovey-dovey posts together on social media.

Aside surprising her with a Porsche car worth N45 million on her birthday, the singer also released a song titled ‘Assurance’ to celebrate Chioma.

Davido was born in Atlanta and raised in Lagos. He made his music debut as a member of the music group KB.

The Afro-pop singer rose to fame in 2011 with the release of “Dami Duro”, the second single from his debut studio album Omo Baba Olowo.
