Davido’s warm greeting to Zlatan’s parents at wedding gets people talking

Zlatan Ibile’s traditional wedding to Davita Lamai on Saturday, 24 October 2026, was always going to be a celebration worth watching, but it was a brief, unscripted moment involving Davido that got the internet buzzing.

Footage from the Lagos ceremony, watermarked by JUJU TV, captured the Afrobeats superstar greeting Zlatan’s parents at the venue entrance, surrounded by dignitaries in full ceremonial Yoruba attire.

The outdoor setting was festive and charged with cultural pride, and Davido’s arrival drew the attention of onlookers and photographers alike. What struck viewers most was how the singer carried himself.

Rather than breezing past in the way a megastar might, Davido was seen removing his cap as he approached and offering what onlookers described as a warm, respectful greeting.

The gesture, simple yet striking, quickly made its way onto social media, where fans praised Davido for showing humility despite his global status.

Many commentators noted that in Yoruba culture, removing a cap and bowing slightly to elders is a sign of deep respect, and Davido’s action resonated strongly with viewers who value cultural values.

Others highlighted the long-standing friendship between Davido and Zlatan, which dates back to their hit collaborations including Oshe and Cho, saying the moment reflected genuine brotherhood beyond music.

Zlatan Ibile and Davita Lamai’s traditional wedding attracted several celebrities, industry figures and family members, with performances and cultural displays adding colour to the ceremony in Lagos.

Davido, who has been known for his close relationships with fellow artists, was one of the high-profile guests at the event.

As videos of the greeting continue to circulate, fans have continued to applaud Davido for embodying respect and humility at a high-profile event.
