Davido has come out strong to defend his family after a senior member of the APC party, Hon. Timothy Owoeye, said that the APC governorship ticket is not for sale to the Adeleke family.
Earlier this week, Davido, his father Dr. Adedeji Adeleke, and his uncle, Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, visited President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. This visit stirred some reactions within the APC party.
After the visit, Hon. Timothy Owoeye made it clear that the Adeleke family is not welcome in the APC party. He spoke strongly against their attempt to join the ruling party.
When a video of Owoeye’s statement went viral online, Davido mocked him by writing, “No be this guy naked for bush?” His cousin replied with a laughing emoji, showing support for Davido’s reaction.
Owoeye’s speech was made during a press conference in Osogbo on June 4. He is the former Speaker of the Osun State House of Assembly.
In his speech, Owoeye insisted that the APC governorship ticket is not for sale to the Adeleke family. He said firmly, “The APC ticket is not for sale for the Adeleke family.”
He also said that they do not see Governor Ademola Adeleke as part of the APC at the moment.
Owoeye added that the APC remains the strongest political party in Osun State. He suggested that the Adeleke family wants to join the APC because they are afraid of the unknown.
He said, “If the Adeleke family and the PDP were not afraid, they would not want to join the APC.”
He further claimed that the APC is fully active in Osun State and that the only reason the PDP won the last elections was due to cheating.
He declared, “The time of the PDP is already over in Osun State. By August 8, 2026, we will remove them. There is no space for PDP or Adeleke in the APC.”
This exchange shows the tension between the Adeleke family and the APC party, with Davido defending his family while the APC leadership keeps the party’s doors closed to them.
