Afrobeats star **David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido**, has warned President Bola Tinubu over the conduct of the 2026 Osun State governorship election.
CDA News Nigeria reports that Davido said he would involve United States President **Donald Trump** if anything goes wrong during the election, which is scheduled for August 15, 2026.
CDA News gathered from the report that Davido’s warning came amid growing political tensions ahead of the Osun governorship poll. The singer has remained vocal on political issues and has previously expressed support for his uncle, Governor Ademola Adeleke.
