Reports say a political exchange in Nigeria escalates after Edo State Governor Monday Okpebholo mocks Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke for what he describes as frequent dancing at public events. In a video circulating online, Okpebholo tells supporters not to vote for Adeleke, arguing that Adeleke’s repeated dancing reflects a lack of seriousness and political engagement. He also urges voters to reject Adeleke even if financial inducements are offered.
Hours later, Afrobeats musician David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido and described as Adeleke’s uncle in some reports, reacts on social media. Multiple outlets report that Davido posts what appears to be Okpebholo’s West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) result on his verified Instagram story. The document is described as showing subject grades, including D7 in several subjects and E8 in Government, among other results. Sources note that Davido does not provide a caption or additional statement with the post, and that as of the time of reporting, Okpebholo has not publicly responded.
