Ace Afrobeats singer and record label owner, David Adeleke, better known as Davido has earned himself another special recognition in a city in Texas, United States.
This is as the Mayor of Houston, Sylvester Turner in an official statement released on Friday, declared every July 7th as “Davido Day.”
He made the proclamation following a soldout show at the iconic Toyota Center in the city of Houston by the ‘Electricity’ crooner.
Making the announcement, the 62nd Mayor of Houston declared: “I, Sylvester Turner, Mayor of the city of Houston, do hereby proclaim July 7, 2023, as Davido Day.”
After the honour was done to him, Davido took to his official Instagram page to share a copy of the statement.
This is coming after another popular Nigerian singer, Ayodeji Balogun, aka Wizkid was given a similar honour in 2019, after he made history as the first African artiste to sell out the Skyway Theatre in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA.
Speaking at the event, Governor of Minnesota, Mark Dayton declared October 6 as Wizkid Day.
