In a strategic move that has electrified the campaign trail, award-winning musician Davido has endorsed Asue Ighodalo, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in the upcoming Edo governorship elections.
Davido’s mother hails from Edo State, adding a personal touch to the endorsement that has stirred conversations among political observers and fans alike.
“The next governor of my mother’s homeland,” Davido posted on his Instagram stories, sharing a _Thisday_ newspaper cover featuring Dr. Ighodalo. This endorsement is poised to resonate with younger, often politically disengaged voters, a demographic Davido has successfully mobilized in the past.
With millions of followers on social media, his influence can shift the narrative in a state where voter apathy has historically been a challenge.
