Davido Backs Pelumi Olajengbesi for 2027 Election
Afrobeats superstar David Adeleke, known as Davido, has publicly endorsed lawyer Pelumi Olajengbesi in his bid to represent the Oriade-Obokun federal constituency in the 2027 general election. Davido made his support known on Tuesday, September 15, through a statement where he referred to Olajengbesi as his “other project” and declared it a “100% winning ticket.” Olajengbesi, an Abuja-based human rights lawyer, has previously represented notable figures including D’banj, Moses Bliss, and Mercy Chinwo.
His political profile rose during the 2026 Osun governorship election, where he served as the campaign spokesperson for Governor Adeleke, Davido’s uncle, who was re-elected in a competitive race. Following this victory, Governor Adeleke acknowledged Olajengbesi’s significant contribution to the campaign's success.
Additionally, Olajengbesi is the convener of the Imole Grassroots Mobilisation Network.
