Popular Nigerian businessman Wale Jana has predicted that the Adeleke family will produce a future president of Nigeria, potentially Afrobeats superstar Davido, following Governor Ademola Adeleke's re-election victory in the Osun State governorship election.
Wale Jana Credits Raji Adeleke's Political Legacy
In an Instagram post shared on August 17, 2026, Wale Jana traced the family's political roots to the late Senator Raji Adeleke, crediting him with building a political machinery that has produced two Adeleke governors. He wrote: "Whether you see it yet or not the Adelekes are a power bloc in Nigeria. The political structure started with David's grandfather Senator Raji Adeleke who was a Senator and he built a political machinery that has produced two Adeleke governors; first was Governor Isiaka Adeleke and now Governor Ademola Adeleke."
Jana's comments came as a reaction to Ademola Adeleke's victory in the Osun State election, which was confirmed on August 16, 2026. The businessman highlighted the family's unity across different mothers, noting that despite some members being stepbrothers, their commitment to one another's success remains unwavering.
Davido Named as Potential Presidential Candidate
Beyond the governorship, Wale Jana argued that the Adeleke political pipeline runs deeper, with numerous family members positioned to benefit from the existing political structure across Nigeria and Osun State. His prediction that an Adeleke would one day occupy Aso Rock drew particular attention, especially his suggestion that Davido could be the one.
"Mark my words; An Adeleke will be the president of this country someday, we don't know who he will be yet but Nigeria will have an Adeleke president if they continue in unity. It may very well be Davido," he wrote, while congratulating the governor in the same breath.
Fans React to Wale Jana's Prediction
The post immediately sparked a lively debate in the comments section, with many fans playfully weighing in on who among the Adelekes should actually take the presidency. Some suggested Davido's father, Deji Adeleke, while others mentioned other family members like Tunji.
