Osaai Ovie Success, an aide to the Delta state governor, criticized the attire chosen by singer Davido and Chioma for their pre-wedding photos.
In a Facebook post, Ossai described Davido’s choice of attire as disrespectful to Igbo culture, emphasizing the importance of honoring the bride’s cultural heritage by dressing accordingly.
He wrote; ‘’Davido disrespected the Igbo Culture with his Yoruba dressing while getting married to an Igbo Girl. Davido’s pre-wedding photos are an insult to Igbo Culture. This is an error because as a man, when you are getting married to a woman, it’s paramount you respect her culture by dressing in her culture.
“I was surprised to see Davido’s pre-wedding photos where he wore Yoruba attire despite marrying an Igbo woman, Chioma. As someone who values cultural heritage, I believe it’s important to respect and honor each other’s traditions, especially on special occasions like weddings.
“In many African cultures, dressing in the bride’s cultural attire is a sign of respect and unity. I am happy for Davido and Chioma but I just have to speak the truth even though I will be attending their wedding.”
