In a show of solidarity and admiration, Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State has sent his warm wishes for a swift recovery to the young and talented artist, Rema.
The ‘Calm Down’ crooner recently announced the cancellation of his December tour across Lagos, Abuja, and Benin due to health concerns, prompting an outpouring of support from fans and well-wishers.
Taking to his X (formerly Twitter) handle, Governor Obaseki expressed the pride that Edo people feel for Rema, applauding the artist’s exceptional achievements. Rema’s recent milestone of selling out London’s iconic O2 Arena and amassing a staggering 1.6 billion streams on Spotify this year has not only established him as a musical force but has also served as inspiration for aspiring young creatives.
Governor Obaseki stated, “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.”
