Imo State Governor and Chairman of the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF), Hope Uzodinma, has clarified his relationship with award-winning singer David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, amid political tensions ahead of the Osun State governorship election.
Uzodinma, who also chairs the APC Osun Governorship Campaign Council, stressed that Davido remains “his son” despite recent controversies.
He explained that he is not a registered voter in Osun but is participating in the electioneering process to support the APC candidate, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji.
The governor’s clarification followed remarks credited to Ambrose Nwogwugwu, who criticised Davido after the singer appealed for a peaceful election.
Uzodinma distanced himself from those comments, stating he never authorised Nwogwugwu or anyone else to speak on his behalf.
“The comments are personal opinions and do not represent my position or that of the APC governorship campaign council,” Uzodinma said in a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Oguwike Nwachuku.
