Nigerian singer David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has had his past declaration against the All Progressives Congress (APC) resurface following the appointment of his uncle, Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, as coordinator of President Bola Tinubu’s 2027 re-election campaign in the state.
The appointment has sparked reactions on social media, with some users questioning Adeleke’s decision to join Tinubu’s campaign despite the political differences between the two camps during the 2026 Osun governorship election.
One social media user, identified as IKEAN, wrote: “Yesterday people died for Adeleke while fighting Tinubu APC to win elections. Today Ademola Adeleke, emerges APC Presidential Campaign Council Coordinator in Osun State.”
Another user, Chychy, tagged Davido and expressed disappointment over his uncle’s decision.
“@davido we your fans are highly disappointed in your uncle for accepting this appointment,” the user wrote.
Similarly, another user identified as Sly questioned the appointment, expressing concern over the sacrifices made by supporters during the governorship election.
Davido had openly opposed the APC ahead of the August 2026 Osun governorship election, declaring: “I can never support APC in my life!”
Following news of his uncle’s appointment, the singer shared a video of Adeleke dancing and singing on his Instagram Story. However, he did not directly address the governor’s new role in the post.
Adeleke, who secured re-election under the Accord Party, was named among the coordinators in Tinubu’s 2027 presidential campaign structure in Osun State.
