Afrobeats singer, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido
has claimed that Nigeria has the “worst governments.”
He noted that the country does not have the best leaders and
that despite the poor governance in the country, the entertainment industry has
shined a positive light on the nation’s global image.
Speaking in a recent interview with Apple Music’s Ebro
Darden, Davido said, “I am happy that entertainment switched the narrative. We
[Nigerians], don’t have the best leaders. We have the worst governments.
“But the music and entertainment industry in general, has
impacted our country’s image abroad positively.”
“The entertainment industry is also attracting tourists to
the country. Last December, there were more Americans than Nigerians in Lagos.
I was like, what are you all doing here?
“Back in the days, we used to be excited when coming to
America but now, they are the ones coming to Lagos. It is not just music, it is
the culture as a whole. If you go to Paris Fashion Week, about 80 per cent of
the models are Africans, the same with the creative directors. It’s
impressive.”
