Akpabio To Davido: Stay Out Of Politics And Focus On Your Music

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has advised renowned Afrobeat singer Davido to steer clear of political entanglements. This caution was given in Abuja on Monday during Davido’s courtesy visit to the Senate President.

Welcoming Davido, Akpabio expressed his admiration for the musician’s contributions to the country and praised him for bringing pride to Nigeria.

“For me and for the government of President Bola Tinubu, it’s an inclusive administration, and you must have noticed in my various outings that we move as one across party lines,” Akpabio stated.

“Even though your administration is a PDP, one thing that is common to all of us is the interest of this country. And it is a country that has given you so much love. With over 240 million Nigerians, the country’s population is unmatched anywhere else in Africa. I urge you to remain a great Ambassador of our country. Continue to do your best in the entertainment industry and don’t allow anybody to drag you into politics.”

Akpabio emphasized the value of talent within the political arena and assured Davido of continued support for the entertainment industry. “For us in the political arena, we value talents. We will do everything possible to support the entertainment industry and talented people like you. All we need is patience and prayers for us to succeed,” he added.

In response, Davido shared the purpose of his visit and highlighted his philanthropic efforts. “As for me, I’m doing my part to assist society. I have a foundation where I share N300 to N400 million to the orphanages yearly. And I have a new album coming out in June or July of this year. I just thank you for everything you have been doing for us,” the singer said.

Davido was accompanied by his cousins, Tunji Adeleke, son of his late uncle Senator Isiaka Adeleke, and Folasade Adeleke, daughter of the Osun State Governor.
