Davido Criticizes Gboyega Oyetola Ahead of Osun Election

Nigerian singer Davido called out Gboyega Oyetola, the current Minister of Marine and Blue Economy and former Governor of Osun State, in the early hours of Tuesday. Davido accused Oyetola of having a plan that would embarrass him, labeling Oyetola a "desperate politician." This criticism comes as political tensions rise in Osun State ahead of the upcoming gubernatorial election set for August 15, 2026.

Davido's remarks were made in response to an alleged plan by Oyetola, which he claimed would fail. This incident follows Davido's announcement two weeks prior, where he stated he would suspend his music career for two months to actively campaign for the re-election of the current Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke.
