Afrobeats star David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has claimed that he would be difficult to defeat in a free and fair election if he ever decided to seek political office in Nigeria.
The singer, however, stressed that he has no intention of venturing into politics, citing what he described as a lack of transparency in the country’s electoral process.
Speaking during a recent livestream with content creator Carter Efe, Davido said he would rather continue pursuing his music career than contest for public office under the current electoral system.
He added that he would only consider politics if Nigeria’s elections become more transparent and credible.
The host asked: “Would you love to govern a state?”
Davido replied: “Nigeria wey dem dey write result? I no get time for all those ones. Because I no be all those ones wey you go cheat me, I go go sleep for house. I will do something to you If you cheat me.
“Let me just focus on my music until there is transparency then I can go ahead and contest for elective positions. Nobody can beat me in any election, never! In a free and fair election, I can win presidential election in Nigeria.
“But because of the system, there is no transparency, they write results. I waiting to see what they will do in the upcoming Osun gubernatorial election. We are wailing.”
