'I started the trend of actors & entertainers going into politics'- RMD

Iconic actor and Commissioner for Culture in Delta state, Richard Mofe Damijo, says he started the trend of actors and entertainers venturing into politics. RMD said this when asked how he felt to be invited to serve as commissioner by the Delta state governor, Emmanuel Uduaghan...
"It's humbling. I mean, I couldn't have asked for a better thing. It's just humbling and I am glad that he made the call because today, I have started a trend. Every other actor or entertainment person is going into politics. Somebody saw me at the airport the other day and said na you cause all dis wahala o, all your colleagues want to be like you.  But my prayer is that all of them will be bigger than what I have done" - he told Yes! magazine

    YOU WERE INVITED, YOU DID NOT VENTURE. YOU WERE ONLY INVITED TO COME AND CHOP AFTER THE FOOD DON DONE. THE OTHERS, FROM TONY 1 WEEK TO DESMOND ELLIOT, 9NICE ETC DARE TO VENTURE AND ARE GOING FOR ELECTIVE POSITIONS WHICH YOU NEVER DID. THEY ARE THE CORE POLITICIANS, NOT YOU. BOTTOM LINE; YOU ARE GUTLESS!!!

How did u start it, where did u put Onyeka Owenu, KSA,Zaki and d other idiots that where involved in Abacha's govt though not in active capacity but @least we can say dey started it with their participation in d one million man match they opened ur eyes on how to penetrate into d mocky waters of politics so pls give credit to them, Also where do u put Ruth Benemasia Ophia.Bros calm down now, even Ali Baba wus technically d Special adviser to Obj and PDP @ large on Comedy affairs from 99 to 2007.Where do u Put Ben Bruce from organiser of Miss world beauty parent to DG of NTA a Federal appointment for dat matter.

  40. That's nonsense! Have you heard of Rotimi Makinde ? He was elected as house of rep member and not just ordinary commissioner. Test your popularity among the electorates first and then we can start taking you serious.

    ReplyDelete
  41. What did he start? What of sir victor uwaifo from edo state?

    ReplyDelete
  42. see caseooo!! did he ask anybody to invite him for commissioner offer. unlike others who wants it by fire by thunder. don't mind them joorr.

  48. I strongly disagree with RMD. What about Obot Etuk. I believe she got into politics earlier than RMD.
    I just wonder where she (Obot) may now.

  63. What year did he join politics?
    If it is not before 2007 then 'Tony One Week' is actually the person who started the trend.

    NB: RMD is on an appointment, while Tony One Week was actually elected into Anambra State House of Reps.
