Imo State governor Hope Uzodimma has called on Afrobeats star David Adeleke a.k.a Davido to help his uncle Ademola Adeleke to start a new as a dancer after he is voted out as Osun State governor on August 15.
Mr. Uzodimma who is the All-Progressives Congress, APC, national campaign council chairman was reacting to Davido’s address to him to exercise some restrain and allow the people of Osun to choose who will be their governor in a violence and intimidation free election next week.
But it seems the Imo governor who is spear-heading the onslaught against incumbent Adeleke did not like the message Davido passed on to him on Wednesday. UZodimma insisted that his uncle will be voted out and Davido had better be ready to employ him as a dancer in his music routine.
“Davido should concentrate on helping his uncle prepare for life after office, as the people of Osun appear ready to cast their votes massively in favour of the APC candidate,” Uzodimma said in a statement signed by special assistant on electronic and creative media Ambrose Nwaogwugwu.
“Perhaps, Davido should also begin making preparations to officially sign his uncle as a dancer in his musical band, because judging by the mood of the electorate, he may well be out of a political job after the August 15, 2026, governorship election.”
Davido and governor Adeleke digging it.
