Nigerian music star Davido has shared that he is no longer as interested in politics as he once was.
Naija News reports that the Unavailable singer said he made the decision after reflecting on the realities of the space and how it has worked out for other celebrities.
The Afrobeats singer made this known on April 5, 2026, during a livestream session on Twitch with streamer Davrel, where he spoke about his past desire to go into partisan politics and how his thinking has changed over time.
Davido explained that he used to seriously consider a future in politics, but his view has shifted as he watched the experiences of entertainers who made similar moves. He said many of them did not achieve the kind of success expected, which has made him more careful about taking that path.
He said, “Before, I wanted to go into politics, but honestly, now, I see it two ways. All my years of goodwill, my name and my career, all the hard work and the fan base we have built, it is tricky because the way people look at things; the superstars that have gone into politics, the transition hasn’t really been successful. I feel like if you are a politician, you are a politician. It is like it is their business”
Favor As Higher Power?
(The hidden truth)
Some positions in life cannot be held or retained for long if you are not favored. Favor is higher power. You are not the only one desiring, deserving, connected, powerful or qualified. Some positions in life, opportunities, success, achievements, triumphs, selection, approvals, power and position, elevation, patronage, etc, are mainly through favor. Favor is silent, spiritual and higher power. For spiritual guidance, other solutions, call/Whatsapp Dr J.A. Faros on 07030514063. With God, all are possible.
