Afrobeats superstar David Adeleke, popularly known by his stage name Davido, has lambasted Bashir Ahmad, a former presidential media aide, over his remarks on the Osun State governorship election.

DAILY POST reports that the exchange began after Davido took to X on Thursday to celebrate President Bola Tinubu’s telephone conversation with Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke.

In the post, Davido said he was present during the phone conversation, adding that he “witnessed history.”

Reacting to the post, Bashir Ahmad said he was bookmarking Davido’s post, expressing confidence that the singer would return to X to lament the outcome of the August 15 governorship election.

“This tweet is bookmarked. It will serve as a reference for future events. I know you will come back here to lament if the August 15 results don’t go your way,” Bashir wrote.

However, Davido responded with another remark, mocking Bashir’s performance in the All Progressives Congress (APC) primary election.

“You got 16 votes, bro, in the primaries. STFU,” the singer wrote.

In another post, Davido accused the former aide of failing to change the lives of people in his community despite serving for eight years in the administration of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari.

“You measure success by one award. I measure it by sold-out arenas, billions of streams, global influence, and people singing my songs across continents.

“You had government backing and still couldn’t convince enough people to back you in your small constituency. You’re a small boy who came into politics by accident.

“You spent 8yrs with the ex-president and couldn’t make a change in your poverty-stricken community.

“We all have different trophies, Bashir. I’ll keep inspiring the young ones and generations to come while you wait for the next government job to get crumbs,” Davido wrote.
