Afrobeats star Davido has responded sharply to a social media user who questioned his commitment to the Osun State election, sparking a wave of reactions online. The exchange took place on X on August 14, 2026, after a user with the handle xDejiii challenged the singer, asking: "When are you touching down to vote for your uncle? Or is there a polling unit in London?"
Davido's Swift Reply
Davido, whose uncle Ademola Adeleke is a key political figure in Osun State, quickly fired back. In a pointed reply, the Grammy-nominated artist stated: "From the stage to the jet... I'll be in Osun before 7 am, but ur broke body can't understand how that can be possible." The response leaned heavily on his financial status, implying that flying straight from a performance to vote was only possible due to his resources.
Fan Reactions Divided
Reactions poured in from all corners, with opinions sharply divided. @Kuti_monye quipped: "Hope say na you and Trump dey come sha." @Anasswhy cheered: "Finish am for me." @Realonowu rallied behind the political angle: "David carry fire come face APC this time around, we need the same energy come 2027." @Tosin_bamidele was less impressed, writing: "Spoilt child…. The only rich man piking wey Dey boast about wealth as if he was born into penury and suddenly became wealthy. No matter the topic, the boy will always find a way to shame anyone who's not on the same page with him." @Hustle_everyday took a more measured dig: "Your problem be say you too the brag while real Trillionaire's out there living life lowkey?"
Davido's Political Involvement
Legit.ng had earlier reported that Davido weighed in on political developments in Osun State, where his uncle, Ademola Adeleke, is seeking a second term as governor. On Thursday, August 13, 2026, the singer took to X to allege that the All Progressives Congress (APC) brought a fake national chairman to Osun State ahead of the election. This latest exchange underscores the singer's active role in the political discourse surrounding the election.
