Nigerian music superstar David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has issued a direct challenge to the All Progressives Congress (APC), daring the ruling party to demonstrate its popularity through votes at the ballot box rather than through violence and intimidation.
Davido made this statement in a post on his social media page on Thursday, in which he condemned the sh%%ting of Accord Party chairman Asimiyu Ajibola, popularly known as Baba Isila, who was att@cked by suspected political h00dlums in Osogbo on Wednesday night.
The music star described the att@ck as something that must be universally condemned and rejected, warning that political vi0lence is deeply damaging to democracy and serves to frighten eligible voters away from participating in elections.
He also called on all Nigerians, regardless of their political affiliations, to resist any temptation to contribute to the growing climate of insecurity across the country.
In his post, Davido was unequivocal in his message to the APC, stating that if the party truly believes it commands widespread support, the appropriate place to prove that is at the polls not through g¥ns or weapons.
His statement joins a growing chorus of voices calling for peaceful and credible political engagement as Nigeria edges closer to the 2027 general elections.
