Afrobeats singer and entrepreneur, Oluwatosin Ajibade, popularly known as Mr Eazi, has revealed his future political ambitions.
The ‘Skin Tight’ crooner, who recently married Temi Otedola, daughter of billionaire businessman, Femi Otedola, revealed his intention of becoming a president in the near future in a video broadcast via Snapchat.
He disclosed that he has been considering running for the presidency of an African country for a while.
“I have been thinking about it. I think it’s time to share it with you guys. Some of you might be from some country, specifically in Africa, and you are looking for a president; a president who is not looking for money and power but forward-thinking, young, active and can move your country better.
“So, I’m officially putting myself forward for the presidency,” he declared.
Despite being Nigerian by birth, Mr Eazi has a close affinity with Ghana, where he studied and also launched his music career.
He has reportedly stated that Ghana influenced his style of music, which he called Banku music.
In recent years, more Nigerian celebrities have ventured into politics both in elective and appointive positions.
Many others have also revealed their future political ambitions including actress Eniola Badmus, who revealed her intention of becoming a senator in the near future in April 2025.
Former Senator, Ben Bruce, once predicted that singer Davido would one day become the Governor of Osun State.
