5Alive Tour: Davido gets a new name from Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno following his classic historical performance (Video)
Superstar Afrobeats singer David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has been given a new name by the Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Umo Eno, following his electrifying performance in Uyo.
The 30BG boss made history on October 26, 2025, as he kicked off his 5ive Alive Tour with a sold-out concert at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, becoming the first artist ever to fill the 30,000-capacity venue.
After the record-breaking show, Davido paid a courtesy visit to Governor Umo Eno and Senate President Godswill Akpabio.
A viral clip from their meeting captured the warm exchange, where the governor shook hands with the singer and affectionately called him “Alagbara,” a Yoruba word meaning “Powerful.”
The moment drew laughter from Davido, who appeared pleasantly surprised by the nickname, sharing a lighthearted moment with the governor and his entourage.
