Davido Sparks Debate After Reportedly Gifting Wife a Rented G-Wagon for Her Birthday

Afrobeats Star Faces Backlash as Questions Arise Over Lavish N450 Million Present

Nigerian music sensation Davido has found himself at the center of controversy after reports surfaced that the luxurious Mercedes G-Wagon he gifted his wife, Chioma Rowland, for her 30th birthday may have been rented rather than purchased.

A Lavish Celebration Under Scrutiny

The “Unavailable” hitmaker pulled out all the stops for Chioma’s milestone birthday, throwing an extravagant party attended by celebrities, family, and close friends. The highlight of the evening appeared to be when Davido surprised his wife with a sleek G-Wagon—reportedly worth a staggering ₦450 million—as dollar bills rained down around them.

However, the romantic gesture has since been clouded by speculation after claims emerged that the luxury SUV was merely rented for the occasion rather than being an outright gift.

Nollywood Actor Uche Maduagwu Weighs In

Controversial actor Uche Maduagwu stirred the pot further with a skeptical Instagram post, questioning the authenticity of the gift.

“I love Davido and my Chiom Chiom, but if this is true, then it’s so WRONG, Baba,” Maduagwu wrote. “Oga Davido, you’re a billionaire—what’s all this?”

He pointed out that Davido never explicitly stated the vehicle was brand new, suggesting the actual gift might still be on the way. The actor also humorously noted that the reported ₦400 million+ price tag could have been better spent investing in Chioma’s career, like opening a restaurant that would attract massive patronage.

Public Reaction: Celebration or Stunt?

The rumor has sparked heated debates online, with some fans defending Davido, arguing that even if the car was rented, the grand gesture was still meaningful. Others, however, criticized the move as misleading, especially given Davido’s billionaire status and reputation for flaunting wealth.

As the discussion continues to trend, neither Davido nor Chioma has publicly addressed the claims. For now, the internet remains divided—was this a genuine birthday surprise or just another flashy celebrity moment?

One thing is certain: whether rented or owned, Davido knows how to keep people talking.
