Afrobeats singer David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has claimed that no one can defeat him in a free and fair election in Nigeria if he decides to run for a political office.
However, he said he is not interested in contesting for any elective position because of the corrupt nature of Nigerian elections and the electoral body.
Speaking during a recent livestream with streamer Carter Efe, Davido said he would focus on making music until there is electoral transparency in Nigeria.
The host asked: “Would you love to govern a state?”
Davido replied: “Nigeria wey dem dey write result? I no get time for all those ones. Because I no be all those ones wey you go cheat me, I go go sleep for house. I will do something to you If you cheat me.
“Let me just focus on my music until there is transparency then I can go ahead and contest for elective positions. Nobody can beat me in any election, never! In a free and fair election, I can win presidential election in Nigeria.
“But because of the system, there is no transparency, they write results. I waiting to see what they will do in the upcoming Osun gubernatorial election. We are wailing.”
