“I Wanted To Be A Musician But My Parents Discouraged Me” — Osun Governor Ademola Adeleke

Ademola Adeleke, the Governor of Osun State has revealed that he wanted to be a musician but his parents discouraged him and he eventually went into politics.

During an interview on ARISE TV on Wednesday, December 27, 2023, the 63-year-old politician spoke of his obsession with dancing and how his father thwarted his childhood dream of becoming an artist.

 

The governor may have failed to turn out as a musician, but he believed he succeeded in passing on the talent to his son, B-Red \- a Nigerian music star.

 

Adeleke also claimed to have transmitted his musical talent to his nephew and Afrobeats superstar, David Adeleke, also known as Davido.
