Davido quickly answered a fan’s question regarding who his best man is during the recent online celebrations on X days before the wedding, revealing that it is his childhood pal Lati. Davido and Lati have been friends since 10F. Lati met Davido while working in the Adeleke home after his parents passed away.
“I have known you since you were 10 years old. That was when I lost both my parents. You are always there for me like a brother and you have never turned your back against me,” Lati wrote, many yeas ago in an Instagram post.
In an interview with YouTuber Tayo Aina, Davido revealed that when he first saw Chioma at Babcock University as a student, he requested Lati to approach her on his behalf.
“I was in school for a year before I blew up. That was when I met my wife. I remember the day I saw her. I can never forget it. I was in a Prado, and I looked behind and I saw this girl walking. Just there with her bag, it was Chioma. I told Lati, ‘Omo, I like that girl. Go and call that girl for me.’ He called her but she did not answer me at the time,”
In a field where connections are frequently fleeting and commercial, Davido’s narrative serves as a potent reminder of the value of true friendships. It is more than just a case of Lati introducing Davido to Chioma; it is evidence of their close relationship. It all comes down to having people who support, understand, and ultimately care for you. Lati was Davido’s best man for reasons beyond custom or practicality. It was an emotional decision that demonstrated the significant influence Lati had on his life. It was a means of recognizing the importance of Lati in his romance with Chioma and paying tribute to the friendship that had endured through the years.
The information regarding Lati’s involvement gives a touching touch to Davido and Chioma’s love story, while supporters continue to rejoice their union. It is a lovely reminder that there are frequently unsung heroes who are instrumental in bringing two individuals together behind every successful relationship. Lati Biola, Davido’s best friend, confidante, and matchmaker behind his romance with Chioma, is that hero. Ultimately, Davido’s exuberant account of how Lati brought him to Chioma is a celebration of genuine friendship as much as a story of love. Many people may relate to this story, which serves as a helpful reminder of the value of having friends who actually care about us and encourage us on our quest for happiness.
