Davido has alleged that the All Progressives Congress (APC) brought a fake national chairman to Osun State to endorse their governorship candidate, Amubo. The Afrobeats star made the claim on X on Thursday, 13 August 2026, ahead of the Osun State governorship election.
Davido's Allegation on X
In his post, Davido wrote: "Out of desperation, APC brought a fake National Chairman to endorse Amubo." The singer has been vocal about Osun State politics, with his uncle, Ademola Adeleke, seeking a second term as governor.
This latest allegation follows a similar post from days earlier, in which Davido accused Imo State governor Hope Odidika Uzodinma of attempting to compromise the electoral process in Osun State. In that post, he alleged that Uzodinma had dispatched an INEC representative, Pauline Ugonyeka, to the state in a bid to manipulate the vote.

Davido's Ongoing Feud with Politicians
Legit.ng had reported that Davido publicly mocked Edo State Governor Monday Okpebholo over a tweet the governor shared on August 10, 2026. Davido's jab appeared to be part of an ongoing feud between the singer and the governor, following reports that Okpebholo made comments about Davido's uncle.
The singer has been consistently outspoken on the matter, using his social media platforms to draw attention to what he describes as interference by opposition forces.
