Singer Korede Bello has addressed concerns from fans regarding his relative absence from the public eye, sharing a deeply introspective message on Instagram.
In an Instagram post made over the weekend and accompanied by Carlos Cipa’s instrumental piece The Place Where They Go, Korede opened up about his journey of self-discovery and the significance of inner peace.
Responding to frequent inquiries about his whereabouts, the singer stated, “Whenever I hear or see comments like ‘Where have you been?’ I’m always usually kind of surprised. Why? Because I’ve been here all along, with me, myself and I.”
He highlighted the importance of self-awareness over external validation, adding, “I’m grateful that I don’t have to ask myself ‘Korede, where are you?’ For it is better for the world to ask ‘Where have you been’ than for you to ask yourself ‘Who am I…. where am I?’”
Korede also reflected on the often-overlooked struggles of fame, stating, “Don’t you know that you can be extremely rich and famous but lost inside your mind? I have come to realize that the more you connect with yourself the less the world connects with you.”alize that the more you connect with yourself, the less the world connects with you.”
The ‘Godwin’ singer acknowledged that deep self-reflection often leads to noticeable changes in one’s outlook and interactions.
“You think different, you act different because you are different. They might even say ‘Who do you think you are?…’ But this hero’s journey is so necessary because you cannot truly stand out until you stand out and become outstanding,” he said.

Davido reacts as President Tinubu calls his Uncle, Gov Adeleke, moments after he ordered EFCC to vacate court order freezing Osun state govt account
Award-winning Nigerian singer, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has revealed that he was present when President Bola Ahmed Tinubu personally called Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke to inform him that he had directed the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to lift the freeze placed on the state’s bank accounts.
The Afrobeats star made the disclosure on social media shortly after the Presidency confirmed that the President intervened in the matter, describing the moment as one of historical significance.
“I was there live! I witnessed history,” Davido wrote, suggesting that he personally witnessed the high-level telephone conversation between the President and the governor.
The development followed the EFCC’s decision to freeze the Osun State Government’s bank accounts on August 5, 2026, barely ten days before the state’s governorship election, a move that immediately generated widespread political reactions and concerns about its timing.
President Tinubu later issued a personal statement expressing discomfort over the action, saying he was “deeply embarrassed” by the timing of the account freeze because it could create the impression that the Federal Government was attempting to influence the forthcoming governorship election.
According to the President, regardless of the reasons behind the anti-graft agency’s decision, the action risked undermining public confidence in the electoral process and could be interpreted as federal interference in Osun State’s political affairs.
Following the President’s intervention, his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, confirmed that Tinubu personally contacted Governor Adeleke to inform him that he had instructed the EFCC to reverse the decision and unfreeze the state’s accounts.
The reversal has since attracted significant public attention, particularly because it came after the President publicly distanced himself from the timing of the anti-corruption agency’s action.
Davido’s revelation that he witnessed the conversation has further fueled discussions online, with many social media users reacting to the singer’s proximity to the unfolding political development.
Governor Ademola Adeleke, who is seeking re-election in the upcoming governorship poll, is also Davido’s uncle, making the singer’s presence during the conversation unsurprising to many observers.
The lifting of the freeze is expected to allow the Osun State Government to regain access to its financial resources as preparations continue ahead of the governorship election.
