Afrobeats star Davido, real name David Adeleke, has announced plans to pursue a master's degree in Political Science in the United Kingdom next year. The singer revealed the decision during a livestream on Wednesday that quickly gained traction online. He confirmed the programme will be a one-year postgraduate course and stressed it would not be held at Adeleke University, which is owned by his family.
Davido stated, "I want to do my Master's next year in the UK, a one-year course in political science. I already have my B.Sc." He responded in the negative when asked if he would attend Adeleke University. The musician has previously shown interest in political matters, especially during Nigerian election periods. Fans responded positively to the news, applauding his commitment to education while maintaining a successful music career.
Davido insists his master's will be in the UK, not at his family's university, even as assumptions tied his name to Adeleke University. He holds a bachelor's degree already but has not disclosed where it was obtained. His focus on political science gains attention given his occasional commentary on Nigeria's governance. The move raises curiosity about how his academic pursuit will intersect with his public influence.
