CHIVIDO 2024: You’re A Disgrace, Uche Maduagwu Slams Gov Adeleke For Attending Davido’s Wedding
Controversial Nollywood actor, Uche Maduagwu, has condemned Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, for neglecting his official duties to attend his nephew, singer Davido’s wedding in Lagos today.
Biztellers reports that Governor Adeleke, former President Olusegun Obasanjo, and former Akwa Ibom State Governor, Udom Emmanuel, were among the dignitaries present at Davido and Chioma’s lavish wedding on Tuesday.
In a video message shared on his Instagram account, Maduagwu specifically castigated Governor Adeleke for attending a wedding on a workday.
He stated, “On a Tuesday morning, Osun State Governor is leaving his State to attend a wedding in Lagos. We are not ready in this country. Honestly, we are not serious in this country.
“Can you see the MD of Access Bank or Zenith Bank leave their office on a Tuesday morning to attend a wedding? I’ve never done this in my life. On a Tuesday morning, the Chief Executive Officer of Osun, which is one of the poorest states in the South West, is leaving his office to attend a wedding. We are not ready in this country.
“This is a disgrace. A disrespect to the people of Osun State. If any permanent secretary in your state leaves his office to attend a wedding on a workday, would you be happy? And as a leader, you cannot even lead by example. You are attending a wedding in Lagos on a Tuesday afternoon. Will you ever see the Governor of New York or the Governor of Texas on a Tuesday morning going to attend a wedding?”
Maduagwu’s remarks have sparked a debate about the appropriateness of public officials attending personal events during working hours, highlighting concerns over governance and accountability in the country.

Alex Iwobi Drops Second Single “What’s Luv?”
Fulham midfielder, Alex Iwobi has expanded his creative pursuits, releasing a second single titled “What’s Luv?”.
This follows the success of his debut track “Don’t Shoot”, marking Iwobi as the first Premier League footballer to enter the music scene with his name and face attached to his music.
Known for his skill on the pitch with over 260 top-flight appearances, Iwobi is now sharing his off-field passion with fans and listeners.
“Music has always been a passion of mine,” Iwobi shared. “It’s a way for me to express myself away from football. Music is a great tool, and I’ve always used it as a productive way to share how I feel.”
Iwobi, who grew up in a challenging area of London, said he wants his music to inspire young people to focus on positive goals, showing them they don’t need to fit into one mold. Through his community work and his creative projects, Iwobi aims to provide a message of resilience and self-expression.
“Growing up, I know how hard it can be,” he said. “Alongside the work we do in the community, I hope that my music shows young people they can pursue different passions. Creating music doesn’t take anything away from my football; it actually helps me switch off.”
With “What’s Luv?”, Iwobi continues to encourage a positive narrative for youth, using his platform as both a Premier League player and a musician to inspire others to follow their dreams and make productive choices.
