The viral video of Davido and Chioma’s wedding sparked a diverse range of reactions across social media platforms, particularly concerning the choice of Lagos over Chioma’s hometown in Imo state for the elaborate ceremony, as per tradition.
Critics and traditionalists questioned why the grand celebration did not adhere to the customary practice of holding such significant events in the bride’s ancestral home.
However, supporters of the couple were quick to provide counterpoints. Some suggested that the couple may have already honored tradition by conducting the introduction ceremony in Imo state, or they might have opted for Lagos due to security concerns or logistical reasons.
