January 4, 2020, was a day Nigerian musician Davido took to his social media to address rumors of infidelity. The rumors started when fans pieced together a picture of him in his jet and one of his ex-girlfriends on the same jet.
According to the fans, the two were on their way to Ghana for the biggest event in Ghana, Afrochella, in 2019. However, Nigerian bloggers quickly changed the script to 'Davido has taken his baby mama on holiday for New Year's.'
It all started when Davido posted a picture of him and his daughter, captioning it 'Taking my baby on a lil Vacay.'
However, the rumors got to him, and in the midst of all the fun, he decided to address it. In the whole post, you could tell he was out there to support his engagement to Chioma and protect her against the hurt.
Davido denied the claims, saying, 'I just want to drop a quick comment on the silly blogs headlines I’ve been seeing circulate about me taking the mother of my first child on holiday to Ghana and really wish y’all would quit with it.'
He continued, 'You all know very well I recently proposed to my girlfriend Chioma, and it would make no sense whatsoever for me to be doing such.'
He explained that his ex-girlfriend had business in Ghana with Afrochella selling Imade’s hair products at stalls, and he was booked to perform at Afronation. He simply gave her a lift to Ghana for the sake of Imade who he didn’t want left in Lagos without her mom.
He concluded his rant with a few words to those out to bring him down, '2020 is for positive energy only, get with it.'
