South Africa-based preacher, Pastor John Anosike, has claimed that Afrobeats superstar David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, will one day become the president of Nigeria.
In a video that surfaced online on Friday, the clergyman made the assertion during a sermon, describing the singer as divinely chosen for a higher national purpose.
“A young man in my country who is known for his music is just a young boy, jumping and singing all kinds of songs, dancing in different ways. But that one has received oil from God. He calls him My servant… His name is Davido… He shall become the president of Nigeria and he will unite the country,” Anosike said.
The preacher further described Davido as a secular musician selected by God despite his lifestyle, adding, “In the realm of the Spirit, I saw him kneeling before Jesus… ‘Look, he has been chosen to unite the country and to lead it into economic freedom.’”
Anosike claimed the singer is unaware of the spiritual future ahead of him, noting that God is preparing individuals across nations for leadership.
Davido, who has gained recognition in recent years for philanthropy and youth engagement, has not publicly declared any political ambition, and as of press time, he is yet to respond to the prophecy.
