Nigerian singer Davido and his wife, Chioma, have warmed the hearts of many after they showed up at Times Square, New York, to surprise chess master Tunde Onakoya during his ongoing Guinness World Record attempt.
Tunde, the founder of Chess in Slums Africa, is currently on a quest to break the world record for the longest chess marathon by playing chess with New Yorkers.
He began on Wednesday, April 17, with the goal of setting a new record time of 58 hours without losing a game. He is using the GWR attempt as an avenue to raise $1 million to support children in underprivileged communities across Africa with access to education.
A few hours in, Nigerian singer Adekunle Gold turned up for him, and now Davido has also gone to Times Square to show his love and support for Tunde.
A video shared online captures the moment Davido, his wife, and his crew members arrived at the venue, while traditional drummers cheered them on with his song ‘Ema dami duro’.
Tunde also stood up to give Davido a warm hug for coming out to show his support, while Chioma, who wore a white shirt and dark shades, watched in admiration.
