Nigerian music superstar Davido (David Adedeji Adeleke) received a deeply personal and loving tribute from his wife, Chioma Rowland, on the occasion of his birthday.

Davido, who was born on 21 November 1992, turned 33, and the celebration was marked by a poignant message of hope and resilience shared across social media.

Chioma, also known as Chef Chi, posted a series of intimate, previously unseen photographs of the couple. Her message focused heavily on the strength they have found together after facing significant personal hardship.

A Message of Unwavering Hope

Chioma's birthday message was a public affirmation of her love and support for the singer. She emphasised the couple's ability to endure and overcome difficult times.

She wrote:

"Happy birthday to my HUSBAND! My bestest friend in the world! You still give me butterflies in my tummy. I love you so much. I’m grateful to God for how far you’ve come and I know He is going to do so much more with you.”

Background on Their Journey

Davido and Chioma Rowland have one of the most public and enduring relationships in Afrobeats history. Their love story first went viral in 2018 with Davido's hit song "Assurance," dedicated to her.

Their relationship has survived public scrutiny, temporary splits, and tragically, the loss of their young son, Ifeanyi Adeleke, in October 2022.

This tragedy led the couple to retreat from the public eye for a period of mourning.

They emerged from their hiatus stronger. Davido confirmed they had married in a private traditional ceremony in 2023.

Later that year, they welcomed twins in the United States, a joyous event that marked a significant chapter of hope in their timeline. In June 2024, they held a grand traditional wedding in Lagos.

A Year of Resilience

The past year has been one of immense personal and professional recovery for Davido. His return to the music scene with the critically acclaimed album Timeless and the subsequent birth of their twins cemented a narrative of resilience.

Chioma's birthday tribute is a public acknowledgment of his strength, not just as an artist, but as a man and a husband.

"Cheers to more beautiful birthdays together! I wish you a long, happy, beautiful and fulfilled life. Anywhere there’s a gathering for evil against us, God will send permanent confusion and chaos to their midsts amen!”

The outpouring of congratulations from fans and celebrities across the globe confirms the couple's powerful position in the culture and the universal resonance of their journey from tragedy to triumph.
