Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State has joined Rema’s admirers and colleagues in wishing him a speedy recovery.
The ‘Calm Down’ crooner, who was originally set to visit Lagos, Abuja, and Benin, revealed recently that he will not be performing anywhere this December due to health considerations.
Governor Obeseki responded on Thursday via his X (previously Twitter) page, saying the people of Edo are proud of Rema and would support him every step of the way.
He said that the Edo-born singer’s astounding feats of selling out London’s O2 Arena and collecting 1.6 billion Spotify listens this year not only demonstrate his tremendous skill but also serve as a wake-up call for young creatives.
Obaseki wrote, “My Rema
@heisrema, your remarkable achievements over the years fill us with immense pride and joy.
“From the extraordinary feat of selling out the O2 Arena to amassing an impressive 1.6 billion streams of music, your accomplishments show your exceptional talent. They pave the way for countless young creatives, offering them a glimpse of what’s possible.
“We are extremely proud of you and remain behind you every step of the way.
“Wish you a speedy recovery, young champion.”
