Afrobeat superstar Davido has condemned Nigeria’s government and leadership, calling them the worst he has ever experienced, while praising the entertainment industry for reshaping the country’s global image.Travel guides


Speaking in a recent interview with Apple Music’s Ebro Darden, the award-winning singer expressed disappointment in Nigeria’s leadership but took pride in the achievements of the creative sector.

“I am happy that entertainment switched the narrative. We [Nigerians] don’t have the best leaders. We have the worst governments,” Davido stated.

He emphasized the role of music and culture in enhancing Nigeria’s reputation abroad, noting a surge in foreign interest in the country.

“The music and entertainment industry, in general, has impacted our country’s image abroad positively. The entertainment industry is also attracting tourists to the country,” he said. “Last December, there were more Americans than Nigerians in Lagos. I was like, what are you all doing here?”

Davido also noted the growing influence of African creatives on the global stage.

“It is not just music, it is the culture as a whole. If you go to Paris Fashion Week, about 80 per cent of the models are Africans, the same with the creative directors. It’s impressive.”

ARISHEM:
APC goons will strike at him immediately

Keep silent, he ain't talking about APC.
Did you see anywhere he mentioned any party in this interview.
He talked about politicians generally.
His Uncle is not different from the bad government he is talking about as well,
They are all birds of the same feathers.
Party politics don turn some of una to something else.

Can you count how many political prostitutes ran from their party to this same APC in the last 7 days?
Ask Mr Jollof!
Y'all deserve the kinda leaders ya have.
Smh.

Hahaha, are you talking about your uncle in Osun state

Especially your Uncle in Osun state

Last December, there were more Americans than Nigerians in Lagos. I was like, what are you all doing here?”


Wow!


How is this not a lie?

Davido is among the very few world class entertainers that still feel the pain of the masses about the situation of the country. Majority of others are hypocritically sitting on the fence ! They don't want to offend or step on anyone's toe Wiz, Burna boy and others only stole the style of baba Fela for fame and fortune. But Davido who has never for once copied baba Fela's style is doing something similar (voice of the oppressed by the government). Kudos Davido, e dey pain us (way get sense for the country) all but what to do na, stupid people still plenty...

He said the truth.

Absolutely correct! In fact one of our governors has nothing inside his skull except to dance like man.

This PDP thug want to use Nigerian government to sell his FLOP 5ive Album like he used that interview to sell his "Fund" single.

Always playing on Nigeria emotion for selfish gain.


You are the least person to condemn any government when your Uncle has turned all Osun people to EDE slaves

By the way,A celebrity can only has a MORAL right to condemn any government if he had not campaign actively for a politician before.He has a right,but it's not a MORAL one!

Fact.

Exactly! That's why we are where we are today!

Instead of focusing on delivering good governance to the people, they employ and pay huge sums of taxpayers sweat to noneti*ties like Reno Omokirikiri, Daniel Bwala, Bayo Onanuga, etc, to propagate falsehoods on all social media platforms about their malistrative government to the unenlightened ones among the populace.

Keep saying the truth Davido

indeed it is

if Davido was in a country with an actual working government, he would be in prison for criminal neglect leading to death of a child

instead, he was able to abuse the system so he could throw a hapless nanny and cook into prison indefinitely

if he was in a country with the best of government, he would not be able to demand for nacks from his baby mama before paying for his child's school fees

so yes davido, you are in a country with the worst government, and you are benefiting from it
