I am a leader myself – Davido speaks on not supporting any presidential candidate

Nigerian Afrobeats superstar, David Adeleke, aka Davido has
disclosed that he didn’t support any candidate in the just concluded
presidential election.

The Omo Baba Olowo crooner recently granted an interview
with the British television station, Channel 4 News, in London.

He said the release of his fourth studio album ‘Timeless’
was a relief from the tough times he was having personally and politically.

He said, “Definitely [the album has been a relief]. It’s
very evident to see, the elections were tough. It was a tough period for
Nigerians, for all of us.

“I’m happy that I dropped the album and it was accepted. I
know that people are still going through a lot in the country and everybody
knows that even in the past, I’ve been vocal about politics.”

Davido said he does not blame Afrobeats artists who shy away
from talking about politics because everyone has their personal views.

However, he added that for those who don’t talk about
politics “it’s obvious” where they stand.

He said he always prays for the future of Nigeria, peace and
transparency in government, and better leaders.

When asked which presidential candidate he supported during
the election, the singer said, “Myself, I’m a leader myself.
