By Boniface Ihiasota, USA
The Governor of Osun State, Ademola Adeleke, has revealed that he has a secret passion for entertainment, especially music and dancing.
In an interview on News Central TV, Adeleke disclosed that he had always been drawn to the world of entertainment but was compelled by his parents to attend school.
According to Adeleke, he was a talented dancer who won several dance competitions and cash prizes during his visits to the United States in the 1980s, at a time when the late Michael Jackson’s music was taking the world by storm.
He shared, “I love music. I love dancing. In fact, I was supposed to be into entertainment and business. During that time when we were growing up, our father believed that you have to be a doctor, you have to be a lawyer, and you have to go to school. But they forced me to go to school.”
Despite his love for dancing, Adeleke maintained that he remained focused on his education and went on to become a successful businessman and politician.
However, he has not lost his passion for dancing and music and revealed that his children and nephew have inherited his talent.
The governor also emphasized that his hobby of dancing has not interfered with his role as the governor, stating, “I still have it in me, but I don’t allow it to interfere with my work as the governor.”
With his impressive skills and passion for entertainment, it’s no wonder that Adeleke is also a beloved figure in the entertainment industry, and his love for dancing is sure to continue inspiring others.
