Speaking during an All Progressives Congress (APC) campaign rally on Thursday, Governor Okpebholo criticised Adeleke, alleging that the Osun governor was more interested in dancing than governing the state.

 

Reacting in the early hours of Friday, Davido, who has consistently supported his uncle’s political ambitions, appeared to hit back at the Edo governor.
