"I have plans to go into oil and gas business" - Davido
In an interview with Punch, David Adeleke popularly known as Davido talks about his plans for the future, the skelewu music video controversies and competition in the entertainment industry.
Also when asked about the competition in the music industry, the 20-year-old said he does not see anybody body in the industry as a threat to him because he is not in a competition with anyone. He said: "Not at all. The rumour is cool. But I see nobody as competition or threat. God is behind me, so I just go into the studio, do my music and everything is fine. I develop and write most of my songs in the studio. I'm not afraid of competition or the fact that some person will just appear on the scene and take the shine. After all, I did it to some people, so I expect that it is something that must happen to everyone because you can't be shining forever. But once you are good to others, make good music, have loyal fans, that's all that matters."
On Skelewu, Davido said "The song is big already; so whatever we do people are still going to talk anyway. I shot the video like a movie and there are three videos, so people can watch whichever one they want. If you don't like the instructional video, you can watch Sesan's, if you don't like that one; you can watch Moe Musa's. If people want, I will shoot one more video, it's not easy."
Davido also admitted that he has taken the criticisms in good faith.
"I have plans to go into oil and gas business with my elder brother next year. I want to do music for 10 years. By that time, I will be 30, and free to rest. Some people are just starting out at 30 but I am already a success and threat at 20. Fame at a young age is a plus because I still have like 10 years to ball while some people are just starting at 27 and 30." Davido replied when asked about plans he has for the future.

Well! going to the oil and gas business is not going to be a difficult move for Davido. Given that his father is successful in the business and friends with all the billionaires in Nigeria like Dangote and Femi Otedola.
