The fanfare of May Day reached a crescendo Tuesday when news broke that Nigerian pop music sensation Davido had bought his girlfriend Avril Chioma Rowland a Porsche worth N45 million.
Nigerian social media, as is the habit, made quick work of the young performer’s generosity, with sharp quips, memes and other posts inbetween on Twitter.
This Porsche reveal came hours before Davido dropped the official music video for new single “Assurance”, which he dedicated to Chioma.
He later tweeted late Tuesday night about rejecting a N60 million endorsement offer for Chioma, saying she wouldn’t make a deal for anything less than N100 million.
Just got an endorsement offer for my baby 60 m I told them bring 100m then she might think about it 😜😜😵
