Davido’s Political Role in Adeleke Campaign Sparks Debate Ahead of Osun Election
Davido’s appointment in Governor Adeleke’s campaign council has generated reactions from supporters and critics on social media.
Public reactions have trailed the appointment of Davido as Head of Youth Mobilisation for Governor Ademola Adeleke’s re-election campaign in Osun State.
The music star confirmed the appointment on X (formerly Twitter), expressing confidence in the campaign and the governor’s return bid.
He wrote:
“I have been appointed by the Governor of OSUN STATE @AAdeleke_01 and flag bearer of the ACCORD PARTY as Head of Youth Mobilisation Council!
“We look forward to a smooth campaign and you RE-ELECTION Your Excellency! 4+4.”
The development comes ahead of the August 8 Osun governorship election, where Governor Ademola Adeleke is seeking another term under the Accord Party.
The announcement quickly went viral, generating debate across social media platforms, with supporters applauding the move and critics questioning celebrity involvement in political leadership roles.
Reactions varied widely. Some users celebrated the appointment, describing it as a boost for youth engagement, while others criticised it as political favoritism.
A user identified as @InsightByTee wrote:
“Osun youths are LOCKED IN!!! 4+4 is LOADED, smooth campaign activated, landslide re-election CONFIRMED!”
In contrast, @bigbrownson argued:
“Davido you’re not worthy of that position… You can’t be living a reckless life as a musician and be a Youth leader.”
Another user, @eddyunlimited, challenged the governor’s performance, saying:
“You want to campaign for someone who has done poorly in the office. I challenge you to list his achievements…”
Davido has long been politically active in Osun State, where he has publicly supported Governor Adeleke during previous campaigns and political engagements.
