Singer, Davido, has shared on his life as a family man and how he ensures that the love goes round despite the less than ideal circumstances. Regarding his much anticipated marriage to Chioma Rowland, his fiancee, and the mother of his son, Ifeanyi, Davido said the Coronavirus pandemic ruined their wedding plans.
The celebrity dad bared it all during an interview with Ebuka on Bounce Radio live. Davido and Chioma got engaged in September last year and many believed they would have tied the knot by now. However, Davido says their wedding which was billed to hold in July 2020 was suspended due to the Coronavirus pandemic .

“Honestly, Corona messed plans up because it was meant to be in July. I have decided probably sometime next year. For now, I want her to work on her business while I work on my album and the kids. I want everything to balance first”
he said.
Speaking on how long himself and Chioma have known each other, the singer said:
I have known Chioma for about seven years. We have been dating for about five years.
Lati introduced me to Chioma. We went to the same school, Babcock University.
We started as friends but I got so used to her and she got so used to me as well. She is a great cook as well.
The singer who has two daughters, Imade and Hailey from his babymamas, Sophia and Amanda, said although it has not been easy making the women in his life happy but that as a man, he has found a way of maintaining balance in his home as he treats everyone equally.
At the end of the day, all my kids are equal. Once I have a kid, everybody is equal. Before I had kids, I was obviously friends with their mothers.
Nothing is perfect. I am not going to say that we do not argue or we do not fight, it happens, but the love that we all have for our kids comes first.
“Imade and her sister talk almost every week. Their mothers ensure that they speak almost every week. Some days ago, Imade was with Ifeanyi in their grandfather’s house.
It is not easy, but at the end of the day, as a man, you have to make everybody happy.
You just have to be responsible and know what you have to do.
Before I engage with anybody I would have known that you are reasonable whether we planned for it or not,”
he said.
The singer also spoke about his late mum whom he disclosed died of Cardiac arrest.
I was about 10 to 11 years old when she died. She died on my father’s birthday.
Honestly, it was just cardiac arrest. Even if it was going to happen, I would not have known because I was about 10 or 11 years old. She was not really sick.
She used to get sick once in a while but it was nothing serious.
I often say that I see my mother in Chioma. I did not grow up with my mother.
I can hardly remember what happened when I was that young.
