Davido is not hiding how he feels about his uncle’s political fortunes. In the early hours of Sunday, 16 August 2026, the Afrobeats superstar took to Instagram to share footage of himself on a video call with Osun state governor Ademola Adeleke, capturing the pair in a jubilant mood as results from the Osun governorship election continued to roll in.
A separate clip shared by entertainment page @goldmynetv also showed the governor and his entourage dancing and offering prayers as they awaited the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to formally declare the results.

Early results from 15 local government areas had shown Adeleke taking a significant lead over his closest rival as the count progressed through the night. The governor, who is a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), was seeking another term in office against opposition from the All Progressives Congress (APC) and other parties.
Davido has been a visible supporter of his uncle throughout the campaign period, and Sunday’s posts reflected that bond, equal parts family celebration and political statement.
