Nigerian veteran actor Patrick Doyle has shared his two cents on singers Davido and Mr Eazi’s high-profile weddings, which became subjects of discussion on social media.
While Davido tied the knot in a church with his partner, Chioma, in August 2025 (in the US), over the weekend, news about Mr Eazi and his longtime fiancée, Temi Otedola, walking down the aisle emerged online. The ceremonies were held in Monaco, Dubai and Iceland, respectively.

In light of these two big weddings, netizens have had a field day comparing the two as they tried to determine which came out on top.
Weighing in on the viral conversation, Patrick Doyle offered his view via his Facebook page.
Describing both as high-profile weddings, he averred that one was more like a carnival with a mixed crowd of both famous and infamous people. He added that the other wedding was quite sophisticated, with a select guest list of accomplished personalities.
He averred that although Nigerians can be razz and loud, there is another sophisticated side that the world has seen.
Patrick Doyle ended by expressing how much he loves Nigeria and being Nigerian.
In his words:
“Two high-profile Nigerian weddings took place more or less simultaneously in the US and Europe. One was a gaudy carnival with a motley crowd comprising of the famous and infamous. The other was an exhibition of quiet sophistication and class with a select guest list of equally sophisticated and accomplished personalities.
This is the picture of Nigeria that the world is coming to terms with. We are at once razz and loud, while also possessing the ability to switch on the charm of sophistication and style. I swear, I love Nigeria and being Nigerian.”

How cybernauts reacted
Patrick Doyle’s post generated a variety of comments from netizens.
Dimbo Atiya wrote:
“Davido and Chioma organized their wedding the way they wanted it and were free to have fun with their friends and families. While the other wedding was the girls parents that organized it, swallowed the boy and wasn’t about the couple but the nepobaby billionaire father showing off. If you mask me the razz wedding would be my choice. And I agree the two weddings caught the world’s attention.”
Gregory iloka said:
“What we need is good life and not this kind of extravaganza.”
Olubukola Veronica Bakare noted:
“Succinctly captured.”
