Daddy Showkey born as John Asiemo but is known as Daddy Showkey all over the Ghetto is a veteran Nigerian gala singer. He was popular in Ajegunle in the late 1990s.

In a recent interview with ThePointNg; Daddy Showkey said not having education is one major thing he regrets.
In his words, ‘It is education. When I see musicians who are graduates, I am proud of them. I like to have PhD too.
Though my mother was a teacher, she still gave me the freedom to do what I wanted to do. But given another chance, I would like to take education seriously. I would have finished my secondary and university education before going into music’.
‘I have so many people depending on me at the moment. Helen Paul and I even talked about it recently and she encouraged me to go back to school. But the truth is that I feel my children will continue from where I stopped’.
