"Davido Vows Lifelong Protection for Asika and His Spouse, Leonna"
In an emotional display of brotherhood, Nigerian superstar Davido vowed to safeguard the union of his long-time manager, Asa Asika, during a heartfelt speech at the latter's wedding.
As reported by our website, Asa has been a pillar in Davido's journey since the beginning of his career, despite a brief period of disagreement. This bond echoes the significance of their mutual endeavors, spanning over a decade of collaboration[2][5].
The afrobeat maestro couldn't hold back his tears at the traditional wedding held on May 17, 2025. During his moving speech, Davido expressed that the union is more than a love story, it's a legacy that showcases their resilience and unbroken bond[1][3][5].
"Asa, you shattered me today... in the most beautiful way," Davido said, "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."*
He continued, "Nothing was handed to us. We built this through fire, through faith, through a bond that never broke." Davido went on to praise his manager's partner, Leona, for her unwavering love and for bringing Asa "home to himself."*
"Leona... thank you. For loving him the way we all hoped someone would. You didn't just join the journey - you became its purpose. You brought him home to himself. I promise, as long as I breathe, I'll protect what you two have built."
Davido described the wedding as a testament to their ability to rise without losing their souls, a symbol of enduring brotherhood, and a celebration of African culture[2][5]. He concluded by saying, "Under the African sun, we didn't just make it, Asa. We made it our way."
