Celebrated Nigerian star David Adedeji Adeleke, popularly known as Davido has been dismissed from the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) for breaking a 3 week orientation exercise in Lagos.
The pop star has been accused of going against orders such as bringing his vehicle to the campground as well as getting involved in politics.
He was actively involved in the campaigns of his uncle, Demola Adeleke, a gubernatorial candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in Osun State, Nigeria.
As a result, he gets a query from the NYSC headquarters in Abuja for the alleged misconduct.
“The NYSC was constrained to ‘dekit’ Davido for violating the rules guiding conduct and activities in the camp.
“As a matter of fact, he absconded because he was away from the camp without permission. That prompted the Corps to issue him a query which was sent from Abuja. So, he is no longer a serving corps member,” Punch News gathers from a source with the NYSC.
Davido joined the corps in August and was meant to finish a 1 year training of the mandatory national work program.
He joined NYSC three years after he graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Music from Nigeria’s Babcock University.
