Nigerian Afrobeats superstar Davido has stirred reactions online after he politely turned down a female fan’s request to follow her on Instagram, saying his wife, Chioma, would not approve.
The moment unfolded during a recent stop on his 5ive Tour in the United States. In a video that has since gone viral on social media, the singer was approached by a female fan dressed in revealing attire, who boldly asked if he could follow her on Instagram.
Davido, known for his playful charisma, responded with a humorous but firm reply:
“No, my wife will kill me. I can’t follow anyone, I only follow my wife.”
His remark drew laughter and applause from the audience, many of whom praised his loyalty to Chioma.
The singer and Chioma tied the knot in a lavish wedding ceremony held in Lagos in June 2024, drawing attention from fans and celebrities across Nigeria and beyond.
Davido’s response is being widely celebrated on social media as a display of marital commitment and respect, further endearing him to fans who admire the couple’s relationship.
