“Money Doesn’t Bring Happiness”: Davido’s Father Tells Newlyweds at Their Traditional wedding

Dr. Adedeji Adeleke, father of music star Davido, delivered a heartfelt message at his son’s traditional wedding, stressing that true happiness in marriage goes far beyond financial wealth.

Speaking to the couple, Dr. Adeleke said that while money and success are good, they are not the foundation of a joyful home. He noted that many people with little material wealth live happily, while some with “billions in the bank” remain miserable.

“It’s just God’s blessing. Once you have that in your family, you know you have a happy family,” he said. “Happiness is not about money…The most important thing is peace, happiness and friendship in your home.”

He urged the newlyweds to make prayer and mutual support a daily practice, adding that he would continue to pray for them. “

The most important thing is that both of you must pray for each other every morning and every night,” he advised. His emotional speech drew warm reactions from guests

But money is very important in any relationship, the man is giving the advice because he's not poor.

That's food for thought from a man who had seen it all.

I think he's right...
This has been said over and over again by rich people.
But, poverty will not bring happiness too, that's why Regina prefer to cry inside Lambo.

"The most important thing is peace, happiness and friendship in your home.” ...Sir, tell people how they can experience true peace, happiness and friendship without the presence of money in their home?
Re: “money Doesn’t Bring Happiness”: Davido’s Father Tells Newlyweds At Their Trad by runningriot: 8:46pm On Nov 08, 2025
Very true and very much on point! The organic truth is if money brings happiness in marriage we wouldn't see what Ned and Regina are passing through today what about Bill Gate, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos etc who's today are all divorcee! As a partner marry someone who you are a friend to so as their could be compatibility through companionship and intimacy!

True! money doesn't bring happiness but it can sustain it.

If a woman marries you out of pure unadulterated love, the expectation is that together you would build a happy and prosperous home. If life happens and money is in short supply, that love may remain but the happiness of that home will be threatened when there's no money.

So, please do not be fooled, money is important in a relationship. Push hard to legitimately make money. It will help sustain happiness in the home and also help to strengthen the love.

Richman brainwashing that money does not bring happiness...it does a million times ..money does not only bring happiness but can create happiness from the scratch. Why didnt he give his daughters to a poor man since money does not bring happiness.

I prefer not to be happy and have money in abundance than be happy and poor cos if you check it properly being poor will still rob you of that happiness when issues begin to compound.


I just hate poverty with passion.

Whether rich or poor, trouble will come to everyone... that's inevitable in life.

Only those who trust in God, not money that will be joyful even in trouble.

Mr Adeleke maybe you can lead by example by trying to become completely poor so that you can get happiness since money doesn't bring happiness.



To young people reading this, let me warn you all, please don't let deceptive talks like this to mislead you or cause you to become lazy and ambition less just because you heard a wealthy man say money doesn't bring happiness.


I have tasted both being broke (almost poor) and being financially buoyant and I can sincerely tell you all that money brings happiness and peace of mind, unless you committed some horrible crime to make the money, like human ritual, armed robbery, Yahoo plus, or dangerous drug trafficking that involves gang wars and human elimination.


Even the Holy Bible recognized this and said that "money answereth all things", it also said "money is a defense".


The only thing money cannot get for you is a ticket to God's paradise on the judgment day, but as far as this world is concerned, money brings happiness and answereth all things, so pursue money legitimately and when you get it legitimately, you will be glad you have it.




Don't let all these deceptive talks by people that haven't tasted poverty to deceive you, money brings happiness, simple!!!
