Osun State Government has discredited claims that its officials attended the naming ceremony of Afrobeat star David Adeleke aka Davido in Atlanta, United States.
Davido is the nephew of Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun.
In a statement on Monday, Osun State commissioner for information and public enlightenment Oluomo Kolapo said there was also no official delegation to any social event in the United States as there was no such event in the first place.
He said those behind the conjectures arising from “directional confusion are to be educated that no naming ceremony took place for the new David Adeleke’s twins.”

“Let’s further enlighten them that babies are usually named before leaving the hospital in the United States of America so that birth certificates can be issued.
“We also need to add that top state officials and commissioners were at their duty posts attending state functions,” the commissioner noted.
Kolapo added that Governor Adeleke even while on vacation is ensuring coordinated focus and constant networking within government establishments for delivery of services, programmes and projects.
“We advise opposition activists to stick to constructive criticism instead of idle gossip in order to preserve whatever little is left of their reputation,” he said.
