Nigerian music superstar Davido has once again captured hearts, not through his chart-topping hits, but with a deeply emotional tribute to his longtime manager, Asa Asika, on his wedding day. The Afrobeats icon, who played a pivotal role as a groomsman at the ceremony, took to social media to reflect on their decade-long journey, celebrating the unwavering bond of brotherhood, loyalty, and love that has defined their partnership.
In a heartfelt message, Davido reminisced about their humble beginnings, emphasizing how they built their success from the ground up through perseverance and faith. “Asa, today shattered me… in the most beautiful way,” he wrote. “Seeing you stand beside Leona, with peace in your eyes and love in your heart — I couldn’t hold it in. Not just because of the man you’ve become, but because of how you became him.”
“Today shattered me… in the most beautiful way. Seeing you stand beside Leona, with peace in your eyes and love in your heart — I couldn’t hold it in. Not just because of the man you’ve become, but because of how you became him. Nothing was handed to us. We built this — through fire, through faith, through a bond that never broke.”
“We didn’t chase the spotlight. We stayed rooted. Loyal to our story, loyal to our people. We didn’t sell out — we carried the culture, even when it felt heavy. That’s why the blessings never left. Because we never left us behind. You’ve been more than my manager. You’ve been my shield. My sanity. My brother in every battle. When the lights were off and it got dark, you stayed. And even now, with the world at our feet — you’re still that same solid soul I started with.” Davido added.
Asa,
