Nigerian Afrobeats star Davido has revealed that he is no longer eager to enter politics. He cited the risks involved and the track record of celebrities in the political space.

The singer shared his thoughts during a Twitch livestream. He reflected on his earlier ambition to join partisan politics and said his perspective has changed over time as he observed how other entertainers fared after making similar moves.

Davido noted that transitioning from entertainment to politics has not been successful for many public figures. This has made him more cautious about following that path.

He also expressed concern about the potential impact on his reputation, explaining that years of building his brand, fan base, and career could be affected by the realities of politics.

The music star added that politics requires a different level of commitment and expertise. He suggested that those who succeed in the field often dedicate their lives fully to it.
