Davido Appointed Youth Mobilization Head for Adeleke

Davido, the renowned Afrobeat star, has officially joined the political arena by being appointed as the head of youth mobilization for the Accord Party's campaign council for the upcoming 2026 governorship election in Osun State. This announcement was made by Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, who is seeking re-election.

Davido expressed his enthusiasm for the role on social media, indicating his confidence in Adeleke's re-election bid. His political involvement became evident in December when he officially joined the Accord Party, shortly after Adeleke's departure from the People's Democratic Party (PDP).

Adeleke has secured the party's ticket for the 2026 governorship race, and the campaign is gaining momentum. Interestingly, this appointment follows Davido's recent reservations regarding his political career, as he has expressed a desire to pursue politics while leveraging his goodwill, name, and fan base built over the years.
