Nigerian Afrobeats superstar David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, paid a courtesy visit to President Julius Maada Bio of Sierra Leone on Tuesday in Freetown, ahead of his rescheduled beach concert linked to the ongoing AFCON 2025 celebrations.
The visit is part of Davido’s 5ive Alive World Tour, which has seen the award-winning singer perform at multiple high-profile events across Africa and beyond. During the meeting, Davido described Sierra Leone as his “second home” and expressed gratitude for the warmth and support he consistently receives from fans in the country.
“Sierra Leone has always shown me love. This place feels like home, and I promise a full stadium concert here someday,” Davido said. He also reflected on his 2017 performance in the country, which attracted over 50,000 attendees, leaving a lasting impression on him.
President Bio welcomed the singer warmly, acknowledging the excitement Davido’s presence has generated, particularly among young people and music enthusiasts anticipating the AFCON-linked concert. The President also praised the artist for promoting African culture globally and enhancing the continent’s musical influence.
Photos and videos from the visit quickly circulated on social media, highlighting Davido’s growing international profile. Observers noted that this engagement follows other high-profile interactions this year, including meetings with President Bola Tinubu of Nigeria and French President Emmanuel Macron, further cementing his influence beyond music.
