‘Why Davido’s traditional wedding was not held In the Southeast’

Joe Igbokwe, a prominent figure in the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Lagos State, has attributed the insecurity in the South-East as the reason the wedding of Afrobeats sensation, Davido, was not held in the region.

TheNewsGuru.com(TNG) reports that Davido’s wedding held at the Eko Hotel and Suites with attendence of dignitaries from all walks of life present at the event.

In the Igbo culture, traditional marriages are held in the woman’s hometown with family members and friends present.

However, due to the increasing insecurity in the South East region, the traditional marriage of the music star, Davido, and his wife, Chioma, a native of Imo State, was held in Lagos.

Reacting, Igbokwe via his Facebook page on Wednesday morning blamed the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and unknown gunmen for the heightened insecurity in the region.

He noted that the beautiful and colourful wedding would have held in Imo, had it been the region was peaceful.

He wrote: “As beautiful and colourful CHIVIDO’s wedding is, i regret the obvious and painful truth that the event did not take place in the South East. Thank you IPOB, ESN and KGM(Known Gunmen) Jisienuu Ike ooooo.”
