“If it wasn’t her (Chioma), I’m not getting married. There’s no point,” he said.
While providing a glimpse into his personal life and relationship with Chioma, Davido explained their deep connection, stating that they had been together for over a decade.
He said: “She’s been my girlfriend for like 12 to 13 years. She was the only one I could have chosen.
“She’s my friend. If it’s not her, I’m not getting married. If you don’t want me for me, it’s impossible. Like right now? How? I’d have just had kids and chilled.”
On how Chioma stood by him when he was just starting to gain success, he said, “I was famous. I wasn’t big, but I was kind of okay. Let me explain, now I’m making like $600,000 per show, on a good day I make a million. So, she was with me when I was making about $2,000.”
