Davido’s big moves

His year, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, is on the move. Early in the year, the Atlanta-born Nigerian singer made headlines when he acquired a 45 million naira Porsche car for his girlfriend, Chioma, on her birthday. Although the artiste said the gift was an assurance of his love for the chef, many are still in doubt if the gift was real or just a publicity stunt as many claim they are yet to see Chioma in her gift.

In August, Davido announced that he purchased a private jet, a move which set the Internet and music industry on buzz.

The Fall singer caused a stir at the Lagos National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) camp where he was to begin his compulsory one-year youth service. He stormed the camp like a rock star that he is. A few days after, he went for a show abroad. His service was later cancelled by the NYSC authority because he wasn’t participating in the programme.

When his uncle, Senator Ademola Adeleke, was defeated by Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola in the Osun State governorship election, the artiste, in a PDP agbada, declared him the winner of the election, an action condemned by many Nigerians.

Recently, the artiste released a video titled Wonder Woman which had cameo appearances by his baby mamas, including Sofia Momodu, who gave birth to his first child, Imade.
