A video circulating online captures Ademola Adeleke, the governor of Osun State and uncle to popular Nigerian singer Davido, showcasing his football skills at the Osun State stadium. The entertaining footage depicts the governor participating in a friendly match with local players, drawing cheers and laughter from spectators when he successfully kicks the ball into the pitch. This lighthearted display comes amid recent criticisms faced by Governor Adeleke and his administration in Osun State.
In October 2023, Daniel Regha criticized both Davido and the governor, accusing the musician of acting as if his family owned the state. Some residents expressed resentment, feeling that the governor had failed to fulfill his promises. Davido defended his uncle on Twitter, staunchly supporting Governor Adeleke’s leadership. In a recent development, Davido made headlines for acquiring a new property in the upscale Eko Hotel neighborhood of Lagos State, proudly sharing images of the N10 billion investment on his Instagram account.
