Nigerian Afrobeats icon, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has asserted that what Nigeria is missing is the exemplary leadership to make everything right.
The singer underscored the importance of strong leadership in propelling Nigeria and Africa towards greater achievements.
Naija News reports that Davido expressed his views on the tenacity of Nigerians and the possibility for the nation to attain extraordinary progress under the guidance of capable leaders during a recent interview with Elevate Africa.
He remarked that although Nigerians exhibit exceptional adaptability and resolve, the lack of visionary leadership has impeded the country’s development.
Despite the challenges encountered by many, Davido highlighted the global impact of Nigerians as a testament to their resilience and influence.
He said: “We can’t go forward without…we need the best leaders now first, that’s the most important thing.”
In an attempt to respond to the question “Where do you think Africa should be by now, and how do we get there through music?” Davido reflected on the tenacity of Nigerians, highlighting their ability to thrive in challenging environments.
“I tell people, I say if you can survive in Lagos or you can survive in Nigeria rather, you can survive anywhere. I feel like we’re survivors; we’re strong-willed people.
“Nigeria, if you go anywhere in the world, everybody has Nigerian friends. Whether you’re Chinese or…you have Nigerian friends everywhere in the world. I fly to do shows, Nigerian restaurants are there, and Nigerian communities are there. It just shows that we’re a force.
“I just feel the only thing is just missing is just the right leaders to lead us. Once we get that right, I don’t think there’s anything that will stop us,” he stated.
