Mr Jollof, a Nigerian comedian, recently revealed that he was a supporter of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and President Bola Tinubu but felt betrayed and “used” by the party. He mentioned that after reading a portion of the Bible, he decided to switch his support to former Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, who is the Vice Presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 elections. Mr Jollof expressed his frustration with the current fuel price hike and economic hardships in Nigeria, urging people to reconsider their support for the APC.
Speaking in Pidgin English, Mr Jollof said, “I support Tinubu from the beginning but when I see the tigers wey dey with am and when I see the way say this people they are users. They used me. APC used me.
“But thank God, when I read the book of Luke 15:1-32, I know say the parable of the lost son na when you don commot from your papa house and you don fall short of his glory, you go go back to your papa. I now went back to [Ifeanyi] Okowa. Okowa hugged me and kissed me. “And come back come tell una say this Tinubu walker, this world before una, I was. But una say I dey talk anyhow. But how far? Who dey buy fuel N617 now? E touch everybody.”
