Music star Davido has made a passionate appeal to the Governor of Imo State ahead of Osun State gubernatorial election.
Newsunplug reported days ago that the Governor was appointed chairman of INEC for the Osun election.
Ahead of the election, Davido, during a press conference, appealed to the governor to ensure a free and fair election. He said he has heard rumours of plans to interfere in the election and appealed to the Governor to use his influence to promote peace.
Davido said he has a deep connection to Imo State because of his wife, Chioma, who hails from the state. The singer stressed that the Governor should allow Osun indigents to choose their candidates freely and encourage a peaceful election.
“To our daddy from Imo State, I say this with respect, sir. I have heard rumours suggesting that there are moves to interfere in the Osun State election. All use the state as a political battleground to prove a point. I do not present this case as fact, but I appeal to you, sir, to use your influence to promote peace and allow the people of Osun to choose their candidates freely. I have a deep connection to Imo State; my wife, Chioma, is from your state, which makes this appeal more sincere. Please, let Osun remain peaceful”.
