Afrobeats superstar David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has claimed that the best doctors in the United States are from Nigeria.
He argued that Nigerians are among the brightest minds in the global music industry, adding that even Western filmmakers now look up to Africans for inspiration and movie ideas.
Davido made this statement during an appearance on the Afric TV program, where he highlighted the intellectual and creative excellence of Africans.
According to him, “The best doctors in America are Nigerians. You can search it. Even in my record label [Sony Music], Africans bring the best ideas. That shows that our imagination is off the grid.
“Netflix and Amazon Prime come to Africa to get movie ideas. Now, when you come on Netflix, you will see about two Nigerian movies in the top 10. Africa is next, trust me. I feel like we have everything but just missing a couple of things.”
Meanwhile, Nigerian Afrobeats superstar, David Adeleke, better known as Davido, has warned black Americans about the growing interest in relocating to Africa.
Davido, during an interview on ‘The Big Homies House’ podcast, expressed scepticism about the trend, citing the current challenges facing the continent, particularly in his home country, Nigeria.
Responding to the show host’s question about black Americans seeking to return to the motherland, Davido responded, “Leave America and go where?”
He stressed the economic difficulties and systemic issues affecting African countries.
Speaking further from experience as someone raised in Nigeria after being born in Atlanta, Georgia, the singer added, “It’s not cool back home…The economy now is in shambles.”
