Sunday Telegraph had earlier reported that in the week, Davido described the kidnapping of schoolgirls in Kebbi State as “Heartbreaking,” insisting that no family should experience such trauma.

He also condemned the violent attack on a church in Kwara State, praying for the victims and urging Nigerians not to normalize such tragedies.

The singer’s birthday also drew emotional tributes from his wife, Chioma, who prayed publicly for God’s protection over their family.

She expressed gratitude for his growth, adding that he “Still gives her butterflies.”

Chioma later arranged a surprise dinner for the music star and presented him with a luxury Hermès HAC Haut à Courroies bag as a birthday gift.

Despite the festivities in the U.S., Davido’s message remained clear,  his celebrations do not overshadow his hope for a more peaceful and secure Nigeria.
