I Regret Campaigning For Tinubu In 2023 – Actor Alapini

Veteran Nigerian actor, Ganiu Nofiu, professionally called Alapini, has stated that he regretted his decision to campaign for President Bola Tinubu during the 2023 presidential election.

The actor who stated this amid the growing economic hardship and insecurity across the country, explained that he campaigned for Tinubu alongside hundreds of his colleagues because of his previous contribution in Lagos and in the Yoruba movie industry.

Expressing regret, the actor lamented not being compensated or recognised for his efforts.

He said, “We had to abandon our work for two months to campaign for Tinubu in 2023. We led the campaign genuinely because of Nigerians well-being and not for personal gain.

“We supported and committed ourselves to the campaign thinking our Messiah had come because we loved Tinubu following his positive contribution to the industry.
And we were not compensated, this is two years of his administration. Probably they are not yet in the right frame of mind to do so.

“Will Seyi Tinubu say he didn’t see the old actors during the campaigning? We were more than 100, both old and young that campaigned for Tinubu. We walked around campaigning without being given anything for it. We just did all of that out of love.

“But Seyi is running around the northern part of Nigeria to pay their hospital bills. Aren’t there sick people in Yoruba land (Southwest) too? How many hospitals has he visited in Yoruba land?”
