Reflecting on the global influence of Nigerians, he said, “Anywhere you go in the world, you’ll find Nigerians. Whether it’s a Nigerian friend, a restaurant, or a community, we’re everywhere. It shows that we’re a force to be reckoned with.”
However, he lamented that the lack of effective leadership has hindered the country’s progress. “I just feel the only thing missing is the right leaders to lead us. Once we get that right, I don’t think there’s anything that will stop us,” Davido concluded.
When asked about Africa’s future and the role of music, Davido shared his optimism for the continent. He believes the strength and determination of Nigerians, coupled with good leadership, can propel the nation to global prominence.
