Davido made a grand entrance to his wedding in a 2023 Mercedes Maybach, a car renowned for its luxury and exclusivity.
The Nigerian superstar is marrying his longtime fiancée, Chioma Rowland, today at a lavish, star-studded ceremony in Lagos.
The wedding, attended by former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo and other affluent Nigerian socialites like Cubana Chief Priest, featured the award-winning singer arriving in one of his most expensive luxury cars.
The iconic car is part of a collaboration series between Mercedes-Maybach and the late Ghanaian-American designer Virgil Abloh. Only 150 examples of the special-edition Maybach S 680 sedan were produced worldwide.
Undoubtedly, the 2023 Mercedes Maybach Virgil Abloh S680 is a distinctive choice for Davido’s special day. The singer shared a video on social media showing him being chauffeured to his traditional wedding amidst tight security and cheers from fans and onlookers.
He captioned the post, “Nigeria is happy.” Within just two hours, the post had amassed over 70,000 comments from Instagram users.
Davido reportedly imported the car to Nigeria last year at a cost of $120,000. The vehicle was released in honor of Virgil Abloh following his passing. Virgil had previously collaborated on Mercedes-Benz’s Geländewagen before his untimely death at 41.
According to Ola of Lagos, a Nigerian socialite known for reviewing luxury cars, Davido was the first African to bring the 2023 Mercedes Maybach to Africa.
Davido, the Nigerian Afrobeats superstar, and Chioma Avril Rowland, a chef and influencer, have been involved in a tumultuous relationship since publicly announcing their romance in 2018.
The couple got engaged in 2019 and welcomed their son, Ifeanyi Adeleke, later that year. Tragically, he passed away at the age of three after drowning in a home pool accident. Despite this heartbreaking loss, Davido and Chioma were later blessed with twins.
Throughout their journey, they have faced numerous challenges, including allegations of infidelity, breakup rumors, and intense public scrutiny. Nevertheless, they remain a notable couple, continuously drawing attention.
They officially tied the knot in a legal ceremony in 2023 and are currently celebrating with a grand ceremony.
