Imo State Governor Hope Uzodimma responds to comments made by Nigerian singer David Adeleke (Davido) ahead of the Osun State governorship election. Both reports say Uzodimma interprets Davido’s remarks during a press conference as support for the campaign of Ademola Adeleke, Osun State’s governor and Davido’s uncle. Uzodimma publicly predicts that Ademola Adeleke will lose the election and, in response to Davido’s stance, advises the singer to prepare to work with his uncle in a different way after the vote. The remarks are framed as a remark on anticipated election outcomes rather than a policy statement. The two outlets report the exchange as a political back-and-forth connected to the Osun election and Davido’s public comments, with Uzodimma using the “sign your uncle as dancer” line as the central message.
