Nigerian award-winning singer David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has revealed the comforting words his wife, Chioma Rowland Adeleke, shared with him after he lost at the Grammy Awards for the second time.
Davido’s song With You, featuring Omah Lay, was nominated in the Best African Music Performance category but did not win. The award went to South African star Tyla for her track Push 2 Start.
The category featured strong Nigerian representation, including Burna Boy (Love), Davido (With You featuring Omah Lay), and a joint entry from Ayra Starr and Wizkid (Gimme Dat).
Also nominated was Hope & Love by Eddy Kenzo and Mehran Matin. Despite the heavy Nigerian presence, none of the country's nominees won the prize.
Taking to Instagram, Davido disclosed that after the loss, he told his wife there was no need to attend the after-party.
However, Chioma encouraged him otherwise. Sharing photos from their outing, the singer wrote: “I said baby listen, we lost again, let’s not go! She said, ‘Be humble in victory and gracious in defeat. We’re outside.”
