Godwin Obaseki from Edo State has joined Rema’s admirers and associates in wishing him a speedy recovery.

It remembers that the crooner of “Calm Down,” who had originally been booked to tour Benin, Lagos, and Abuja, announced he would not be doing any shows in December owing to health concerns.

Responding on Thursday on his X (formerly Twitter) page, Governor Obeseki stated that the people of Edo are proud of Rema and will always stand by him.

He said that in addition to demonstrating the Edo native’s great talent, his feat of selling out London’s O2 Arena and earning 1.6 billion Spotify listens this year should serve as a wake-up call for upcoming 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.”
