Davido And Chioma: Ethni-Bigots Will Resurface During-Elections, Warns Priest (Full-Text)

Catholic missionary priest in Gambia, Fr. Kelvin Ugwu, has criticized ethnic bigots who he says are currently feigning happiness over the impending marriage of Davido and Chioma. He cautioned that these bigots will remember Chioma’s Igbo heritage, as opposed to Davido’s Yoruba roots, come election time.

Fr. Ugwu warned that ethnic prejudice might prevent Chioma’s children from being considered “full” Yorubas, potentially barring them from contesting in Osun state elections. In a Facebook post on Tuesday, he lamented the nation’s regression due to ethnic biases, particularly following the recent elections.

He stated, “The ethnic bigots are looking and pretending to be among those who are happy that Davido and Chioma are getting married until it is time for elections. Then, they will remember that Chioma is Igbo and not Yoruba like her husband, meaning that her children cannot contest in Osun state elections because according to their bigotry reasoning, the children are not ‘full’ Yorubas.

“This was how they brought us to square one in the last elections, and see where we are today. If not that I am making a conscious effort to remain a good Christian, I would have joined Johnny Drille in his Palava song to say: ‘If you be bad belle, your father’, but I will leave you to God, your conscience and the price of bread in your area. Mtchwww!!!”

Ireporteronline reports that Davido recently confirmed that he and Chioma will wed on June 25 in Lagos.
