Multiple award-winning Nigerian-American artist, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has shared his enthusiasm after voting for the first time in the ongoing United States presidential election.
The highly anticipated election will determine the successor to President Joe Biden and has drawn global attention as a closely contested race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump.
Davido, born in Atlanta, Georgia, took to his verified X account on Tuesday to announce his debut as a voter in the U.S. election.
“First time voter !! 🇺🇸🇺🇸,” he wrote, sharing a photo after casting his ballot. This marks a personal milestone for the Afrobeats star, who has recently taken steps to engage more with his U.S. citizenship.
The 2024 election pits Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, who seeks to make history as America’s first female president, against Republican Donald Trump, who is attempting a comeback after his 2020 defeat.
Harris, currently the country’s first female Vice President, has emphasized her commitment to healthcare and climate change initiatives, while Trump has focused on economic issues and promises of strong leadership.
With this vote, Davido joins millions of Americans exercising their right to decide the country’s future. The final outcome remains uncertain, with analysts predicting that factors such as voter turnout and key battleground states could ultimately determine the next occupant of the White House.
As the race intensifies, both supporters and critics await the results with anticipation, while figures like Davido add a unique layer of excitement to this historic election.
