…with Clarence Peters
Singer, Chidinma Ekile and music video director, Clarence Peters were spotted together at the MAMAs held in South Africa. The two, who are single in their relationship status, were seen holding hands at Durban Mall, South Africa. They also walked to the MAMAs red carpet holding each other’s hands and sat side by side during the event. This has raised lots of speculations that the two have become an item as lovers.
Interestingly, this is not the only man to have been alleged to have rocked the tender heart of this young singer. The romance between Prince Charming of Soundcity, Adams and Chidinma has been on the lips of many night crawlers and some of their colleagues, wondering how their closeness suddenly grew.
The two have been reportedly spending a lot of time together since last year and many who have sighted them together believed they were merely hanging out. However, the two started hanging out at different spots synonymous with lovers, and the question on the lips of observers and friends was if indeed their relationship was one of a platonic nature.
Their favourite hangout on the Island, where they were often sighted is the Karaoke Bar beside Movida Nightclub. The two, obviously enjoying each other’s company were usually seen talking and laughing out loud. A source in the know further confirmed their relationship status, adding that a night is never complete for Chidinma without her dear Prince Charming, Adams.

Furthermore, there were reports online that NURTW boss, MC Oluomo also had a sizzling romance secretly with her. The rumour was fuelled by what transpired when MC Oluomo splashed N100,000 on her on stage while performing in one of Pasuma’s concerts.
