Davido Takes a Jab at APC’s Owoeye Over Gov Adeleke’s Rumored Switch to Tinubu’s Camp
Afrobeat superstar Davido didn’t hold back as he poked fun at former Osun State House of Assembly Speaker, Hon. Timothy Owoeye, following Owoeye’s fiery comments about Governor Ademola Adeleke’s recent visit to President Bola Tinubu.
The drama unfolded just hours after Governor Adeleke met with President Tinubu on Tuesday, amidst the ongoing local government election turmoil in Osun State. Since February 2025, local government funds have been withheld due to a political standoff between the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
On Wednesday, the plot thickened when Tinubu hosted Adeleke, his elder brother Dr. Adedeji Adeleke, and none other than Davido in Lagos, sparking rumors of a defection deal brewing between Adeleke and the APC.
Not one to mince words, Hon. Owoeye held a press conference in Osogbo, bluntly declaring, “The Adeleke family is not welcome in the APC. There’s no room for PDP and Adeleke in APC.”
Davido, however, wasn’t having it. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), he fired back with a cheeky jab, asking, “No be this guy naked for bush?”—a sly reference to a viral 2018 video where Owoeye was caught on camera performing midnight rituals in the nude.
The exchange adds a spicy twist to the already tense political scene in Osun, blending politics with a dash of celebrity sass.
