Afrobeats superstar Davido, born David Adeleke, has sparked widespread reactions on social media after announcing plans to visit Osun State to collect his Accord Party membership card, signaling his formal entry into Nigerian politics.
The announcement comes days after his uncle and Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke defected from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the Accord Party, a political platform promoting unity, justice, and inclusive governance.
Davido’s move to pick up his card at the famous Imole House in Osogbo has ignited debate among netizens, many of whom see the development as a notable example of celebrities stepping into the political arena.
