Ademola Adeleke, governor-elect of Osun, says entertainment is one of the core sectors he plans to focus on during his tenure.
The former senator, who spoke with Channels, said Osun is rich in culture, and as such, his administration will tap into the entertainment business.
He said his administration may build an entertainment village in the state. Adeleke added that the likes of Davido, his nephew; and B-Red, his son, may organize concerts in the state which may fetch the state monetary resources.
“Entertainment will be the core, one of the things that I’m going to bring to the state. Entertainment is a big business,” he said.
“Now, Nigeria has captured Africa in terms of entertainment. Osun state is rich in culture, so I’ll bring Entertainment here.
“Maybe build an entertainment Village. Just imagine in the next one year or so, Davido will come to do concerts, B-Red and some artists, all of them will come to do concerts here.
“See how much it will fetch Osun state and all that, so that will be part of our programme in the nearest future.”
On July 16, Adeleke was declared the winner of the governorship election by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
He secured 403, 371 votes to defeat his closest challenger, Gboyega Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who polled 375,027 votes.
Chris Brown, the award-winning US singer, was among those who celebrated Adeleke’s victory.
