“Baba even wore Rolex watch” – Mixed reactions trail old photo of Davido drinking Garri during struggling days

A resurfaced throwback image circulating on social media has stirred reactions as it shows Nigerian music sensation Davido indulging in locally-made cassava snack, Garri.

The old photograph gained attention following Davido’s revelation that he encountered his wife, Chioma Rowland, during a period of financial struggle, prompting widespread discussion online.

In a recent French show, ‘The Bridge’, Davido revealed that Chioma has been there for him during his struggling days.

Despite being the son of billionaire businessman Mr. Adeleke, Davido’s claim about his humble beginnings prompted skepticism among netizens.

Some online users unearthed a photo of the 31-year-old DMW record label CEO, depicting him casually enjoying a scoop of Garri, further fueling the discussion.

In the photo showing his humble journey, Davido was seen with a plate of soaked Garri with groundnut and table water.

He was also spotted with a multimillion Naira Rolex wrist watch while drinking his Garri.

Y’all pooor people can’t relate. There’s a difference between your dad’s money and your money. And he met chioma while he was still in school in Babcock. They didn’t meet when he was already very blown. At the time, he has released just two tracks. Your dad can be a billionaire and not give you enough cash but rather spend billions to get properties for you which he’d later hand over to you when you’re more mature but that doesn’t mean Davido ever suffered. He just couldn’t spend his dad’s money the way he’d want”.
