The young celebrant wore a blue and white shirt over blue jean trousers as his parents sang a happy birthday song.
Jayden got a lovely football pitch-themed cake. His name and new age also sat pretty well on the cake.
Ubi held the boy's hands and clapped them together as they sang for him. The celebrant's mum wore a simple cornrow hairstyle and a boubou dress for the occasion and smiled all through.

Peeps react to Jayden's birthday
Some Instagram users have reacted to Jayden's birthday. See some of the comments below:
@abelpter:
"I remember that year when Ubi wanted to run mad after Lilian Esoro broke up with him and ended their marriage. He was behaving just like how Israel did when his wife left him. Why do the wives of all Davido friends end up leaving them?"
