If you ever doubted that Davido is a romantic, think again. Chioma “Chef Chi” Rowland clocked 30 on April 30th, and her husband pulled off the ultimate surprise party in Atlanta, and let’s just say, it was giving luxury, love, and Lagos vibes in one room.

Chioma Avril Rowland, celebrated her 30th birthday in style, and not just any style. Her husband, Afrobeats superstar Davido, planned a full-blown surprise party that was intimate, elegant, and full of heart.

Held at a private venue, the event brought together close friends and family in what can best be described as a Nigerian-style lounge party, in the heart of the U.S.

The Surprise Setup

Chioma walked into the venue with absolutely no idea what was coming. The space was lit with soft pink and purple lights, flowers everywhere, and a plush pink-themed photo area with a glowing neon sign of her name, “Chioma.” The vibe was classy but very relaxed, giving that “soft life” energy Nigerians love to see.

Afropop music played gently in the background while guests mingled, waiting for the birthday girl. When she finally stepped in, the energy shifted, cheers, hugs, and “awws” filled the room.

Her Look? 10/10.

Chef Chi stunned in a silver sparkling mini dress with a beaded bodice and a peacock-blue feathered hem. It was glamorous, fun, and perfect for the occasion. She paired the look with silver heels and statement earrings, keeping it elegant and fresh.

Davido stayed close by her side, clearly proud of the moment he had planned to perfection.

The Gifts & Big Moments

First came the cake, a tall, white tiered masterpiece rolled out while everyone sang “Happy Birthday.”

Then came the headline moment: Davido gifted Chioma a brand-new black Mercedes-Benz G63 SUV, yes, a G-Wagon, right there at the venue. To top it off, he added a sparkling tennis bracelet as a second surprise. The reactions? Screams, camera flashes, and jaws on the floor. Online, fans were already calling it “birthday goals.”

Music, Love, and Real Emotion

The night wasn’t just about luxury, though. There were heartfelt moments too.

Davido gave a touching speech, saying, “We’ve been through a lot together, but it all turned to joy.” He went on to describe Chioma as his strength, his life, and his wisdom, adding that “if she’s not happy, I’m not happy.” It was raw, emotional, and the room felt it.

One of the surprise performances of the night came from Smash (of Bracket), who sang the iconic hit “Yori Yori.” The crowd joined in with loud voices and bigger smiles, it was a throwback moment, but also a celebration of enduring love.

The Fashion Scene

The guests didn’t come to play either. The men mostly wore classic black tuxedos and suits, with a few spicing things up with velvet blazers or agbada. Davido himself wore two outfits, one of them a clean navy-blue dinner jacket that had fans online dropping fire emojis.

The ladies? Stunning. Gowns in gold, emerald green, and silver lit up the room. Hair and makeup were on point,  from sleek buns to braided styles and bold accessories. It was elegant, without doing too much.

The Online Buzz

Nigerians on social media didn’t miss a beat. Videos from the event trended across Instagram and X, with fans dropping comments like:

“Happy birthday our First Lady!”

“My favorite classy queen.”

“I just dey smile watching this love.”

Chef Chi’s 30th wasn’t about a crowd or a concert-level production. It was about intentional love, thoughtful surprises, and celebrating a woman who’s been through a lot and comes out glowing. From the gifts to the speech and the fashion, the night ticked all the boxes.

One thing is clear: Davido did not come to play. And Chioma? She walked into 30 looking happy, loved, and absolutely radiant.

Recently, Nollywood’s screen goddess Ini Edo reminded everyone why she remains a timeless fashion muse as she graced the 15th coronation anniversary of His Royal Majesty HRM Saelegushi. Dressed in a bold and beautifully structured outfit by @trishocouture, Ini didn’t just show up, she arrived with the full force of elegance, confidence, and cultural pride.

A Statement Fit for Royalty

Her outfit was a masterclass in African luxury fashion. The black fabric had a luxurious, glossy texture that shimmered subtly under the light, like silk but richer, fuller. It flowed elegantly to the floor, maintaining a powerful silhouette that was both regal and effortlessly feminine. What truly elevated the design was the geometric motif: carefully crafted metallic gold triangle appliqués scattered across the ensemble and concentrated toward the hem, creating a stunning visual rhythm that drew the eye from top to bottom.

The sleeve design deserves a moment of its own. With wide, exaggerated sleeves that framed her silhouette, the outfit gave a nod to traditional agbada elegance, but with a fiercely modern twist. Underneath, the sleeves were accented with black lace, softly revealing her arms beneath the sheer fabric and adding a layer of delicate sensuality to the otherwise bold ensemble. It’s the kind of detailing that whispers luxury without having to scream it.

Accessorizing with Intention

Ini chose accessories with the same precision she applies to her red-carpet looks. In her hand, she held a mint green structured handbag with gold accents, a bold yet refreshing contrast to the black-and-gold outfit. The bag’s sleek box shape and chain detail added that perfect pop of contemporary edge to her look.

She didn’t just wear jewellery, she wore statements. Her dangling pearl earrings caught the light with every turn of her head, complimenting her overall grace and bringing a soft contrast to the fierce geometry of her outfit.

Hair, Makeup & The Full Glam Effect

Her hair was styled in a sleek, pulled-back ponytail, dyed in a deep burgundy hue that beautifully complemented her skin tone and added a touch of fire to the entire ensemble. It was styled straight and neat, cascading down her back like royalty in motion.

Makeup by @bare2beauty was nothing short of flawless. She wore bold lashes, expertly blended shadows, and a sculpted contour that framed her face like art. Her lips glistened in a nude gloss, letting her eyes do all the talking. The entire glam look was soft yet striking, designed to elevate, not distract.

Posing with Presence

Ini’s poses were a study in intentional grace. In one frame, she stands tall against a muted green backdrop, her hand elegantly poised in the air, chin lifted with the confidence of a woman who knows her power. The photo doesn’t just capture the outfit, it captures a mood. In another photo, she strikes a cooler tone with black sunglasses, a cheeky smirk, and a colourful strip of aso-oke fabric casually slung over one arm. That piece, with its traditional stripes in green, yellow, and navy, felt like a subtle homage to Yoruba royalty, a respectful nod to the occasion.

Her caption was simple but meaningful:

“About last night stepped out to honour his royal majesty hrm Saelegushi on his 15 years coronation anniversary.”

Short, warm, and respectful, just like a true queen acknowledging another royal.

In a world where fashion can sometimes feel loud and chaotic, Ini Edo’s look was a reminder of the power of quiet opulence. She fused tradition and modernity, softness and strength, glam and culture, and the result was breathtaking. It wasn’t just an outfit, it was a statement. And Nigerians, as always, are here for it.

Wizkid Opens Up: Life, Love, and the Story Behind His Tottenham Stadium Show

Two days ago, Wizkid made a post on Instagram that caught everyone’s attention.

In his words:

“We made this documentary when life got crazy for me. Playing Tottenham Hotspur Stadium while dealing with life! Glad I get to have my amazing fans and family on this journey with me.

This is love! From a real place.”

It wasn’t just another post. It was real. Honest. You could feel the weight behind it.

A Night the World Won’t Forget

In July 2023, Wizkid became the first African artist to headline the massive Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.

That night wasn’t just about the music. It was history in the making.

Over 60,000 people came out. The energy was unreal.

He performed some of his biggest hits Ojuelegba, Essence, Mood and the crowd sang every word like it was their own story.

Big names showed up to stars like Bukayo Saka and Alex Iwobi were spotted vibing in the crowd.

But behind all the lights, the cheering, and the celebrations, Wizkid was carrying something heavier. Something personal.

Behind the Scenes

From his post, it’s clear: while the world was watching a superstar, Wizkid was going through real life battles in the background.

We don’t know all the details yet, but what he shared tells us something important even the people who look like they have it all together are fighting their own battles.

And still, he showed up. Still, he gave his all. That’s strength.

The Documentary

Wizkid says they made a documentary during that time.

Not just to show the concert, but to show the real story, the wins, the struggles, the emotions.

Not just “big stages and flashy moments,” but the heart behind it all.

And honestly? That’s something the world needs to see. Not just the music legend. But the man. The human being.

Why This Matters

In a world where everyone tries to hide their struggles and only show their highlight reel, Wizkid’s honesty is refreshing.

It reminds us:

It’s okay to go through tough seasons.

It’s okay to not be “perfect.”

And it’s beautiful to keep showing up with love, even when life gets hard.

Conclusion

Wizkid’s journey is bigger than music. It’s about resilience. It’s about heart.

And most of all, it’s about staying true to yourself and to the people who love you.

We can’t wait to see the full documentary.

And when it drops, it won’t just be another story about success.

It’ll be a story about real life, real love, and real strength.

This is love. From a real place.
