Veteran highlife legend Bright Chimezie was treated to a royal night out in Lagos on Monday, May 19, 2025, as Afrobeats sensation David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, hosted him to a private dinner filled with laughter, culture, and emotional highlights.

The dinner, which followed an earlier promise by Davido to celebrate the iconic South-East singer, took place in Lagos and had fans buzzing even before the evening ended.

However, one of the major highlights of the night came when Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, Davido’s uncle, joined the gathering via video call.

In the now-viral video, Bright Chimezie was all smiles and giggles as he greeted the dancing governor in Igbo.

Governor Adeleke, known for his charisma, responded warmly, saying, “You are loved, sir,” in a gesture that many called a moment of deep cultural appreciation and respect.

The vibe of the dinner didn’t stop there.

In another wholesome clip shared online, Davido’s wife, Chioma, was seen engaging the highlife maestro in an animated conversation.

Speaking in their native Igbo tongue, the pair laughed and exchanged pleasantries, a moment that quickly melted hearts on social media.
