Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has appointed his nephew, Afrobeats singer Davido, as Head of Youth Mobilisation for his re-election campaign.
The “Timeless” hitmaker announced this in a statement posted on his X page on Tuesday.
The singer added that he is looking forward to working with his team to ensure a smooth campaign ahead of the governor’s re-election.
He wrote: “I have been appointed by the Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State and flag bearer of the Accord Party as head of youth mobilisation campaign.
“We look forward to a smooth campaign council and your re-election, Your Excellency 4+4.”
The appointment of Davido came as political activities intensified ahead of the August 2026 Osun governorship election.
Mr Adeleke is seeking a second term under the Accord Party after leaving the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Davido’s latest appointment came months after he was named Chairman of the Osun Sports Trust Fund, a role aimed at attracting investment into sports development in the state.
