An ex-Big Brother Naija housemate and comedian, Adedayo Aderombi, aka DeeOne has slammed Chioma’s family for allowing her traditional wedding to Davido hold in Lagos and not in Imo state, where they are from.
The just concluded wedding ceremony of Davido and Chioma has
caused a stir for comedian Dee One, who expressed his concerns about upholding
tradition in a lengthy rant.
In his video, Dee One mentioned that he expected the wedding
to take place in Chioma’s hometown, as is customary in Igbo tradition.
He argued that hosting the wedding in the East would have
stimulated the local economy.
Dee One criticized the Igbo community, suggesting that their
choice of venue contradicted their reputation for being business-minded.
He reminded Nigerians of the importance of wealth, implying
that traditional norms only bend for the rich. He claimed that Igbo culture is
divided into two: one set of rules for the wealthy and another for those
without money.
Dee One used Davido’s wealth to illustrate his point, noting
that Davido did not travel to the East for the wedding, enjoying the privileges
that come with his status.
Davido and Chioma’s wedding was a grand success, attended by
many dignitaries. The Governor of Lagos State, Sanwo Olu, extended his
congratulations via social media, and Davido’s uncle, Governor Ademola Adeleke
of Ogun State, was seen celebrating enthusiastically on the dance floor with
his nephew.
