Afrobeats superstar Davido has once again given fans a candid glimpse into his personal life, revealing that his wife, Chioma Adeleke (popularly known as Chef Chi), is firmly in control of his finances. In a newly surfaced video from a live session with streamer Davrel, the hitmaker, while walking towards a private jet with members of his crew, casually instructed Chioma over the phone to send $4,000 (approximately ₦6.5 million) to his associate Lati. Stunned by Davido's action, Davrel asked whether the singer's wife manages his money. Without hesitation, the DMW label owner openly confirmed it, laughing as he explained his reasoning.
Davido Admits He Is a Reckless Spender
“Yes, she handles all my finances because I’m a very reckless spender,” Davido said in the clip. The light-hearted moment has sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with many praising the couple’s dynamic and Chioma’s role as a stabilizing force in Davido's life. Others, however, criticised Davido's decision to let his wife control his money.
In related news, Legit.ng reported that Davido left many speechless as he opened up on the enormous amount he spends monthly. During a livestream chat with Davrel, the singer disclosed that his monthly personal expenses range between $200,000 and $300,000, excluding the money he spends on his wife, children, jewellery, and cars.
