Senate president, Godswill Akpabio has advised the famous Afrobeat singer, Davido to avoid getting involved in politics and not let anyone pull him into that world.
Senate President Akpabio shared this advice in Abuja on Monday when Davido visited him.
The Senate President was thrilled to have Davido visit and he was full of praise for the musician, saying that he has made our country proud.
“For me and for the government of President Bola Tinubu, it’s an inclusive administration, and you must have noticed in my various outings, that we move as one across party lines.
“Even though your administration is a PDP, one thing that is common to all of us is the interest of this country. And it is a country that has given you so much love.
“The country’s population is unmatched anywhere else in Africa, over 240 million Nigerians. So I urge you to remain a great Ambassador of our country. Continue to do your best in the entertainment industry and don’t allow anybody to drag you into politics.
The Senate President said that the political arena values talents and they will do anything to support the entertainment industry and talented people.
“For us in the political arena, we value talents. We will do everything possible to support the entertainment industry and talented people like you. All we need is patience and prayers for us to succeed”, Akpabio stated.
During his visit, Davido had a conversation with the Senate President and he let him know the purpose of his visit.
“As for me, I’m doing my part to assist society. I have a Foundation where I share N300 to N400 million to the orphanages yearly. And I have a new album coming out in June or July of this year. I just thank you for everything you have been doing for us”, the singer said.
Davido was accompanied by his cousins, Tunji Adeleke, the son of his late uncle, senator Isiaka Adeleke and Folasade Adeleke, the daughter of Osun State Governor.
