"(Poverty), that's why you see some of our people running helter-skelter, campaigning for all these politicians. But there's one question we have all not asked, and that's what makes American artists donate to politicians while the actors here in Nigeria are asking from politicians. Every member of the National Assembly has not made an reasonable law on piracy which has devoured the industry. So, there's poverty in the industry. If there's not, you won't see our people flocking around all these politicians, campaigning, singing and dancing for them. I saw a candidate being surrounded by some of our colleagues; I now said to myself, 'if this man eventually wins, how many actors or musicians will he remember? Although some are doing it to make ends meet. And it's sad because we're stars. I think we're supposed to be worshiped, not worshiping others. Even if a governor holds your hand, he's supposed to be happy. But now, the reverse is the case.

Intensify on the works of your hands.. if positive, then God would crown it with success. You don't need to be a "ball-boy" to anyone.. some atom of truth in what he said though. 2thess 3:10. @Bishop_Dammy
All i want for valentine is a blackberry phone. It's time to upgrade from my nokia express music. U dnt have to be my boyfriend to give... Lol, 08123751083
He is right!
Plsssssssssssss...
He shouldn't talk ill of his colleague in such manner.
If he doesn't do it does not mean others wouldn't. If u can't beat them join them instead of trying to run them down.
Hmmmm! Instresting

If you don't huv anything better or good to say is better u don't say anything at all. How did u know dy went to begg for money, what if they wer invited? Besides is der life and decisions to make u can't decide for them what to do. Stay der wait for someone to come and worship you. U don become JESUS over night.

That's true, I saw you @ the government house in Osogbo last two weeks.

Poverty or the fear of it is what motivates a lot of Nigerians to do the things they do. So he's not far from the truth.

Its so unfortunate that the rate of unemployment is still very high in this critical time of Nigeria's economy. More jobs must be created if they want our youths not to thread their conscience with money.
Its unfortunately dat many pple here are still in secondary schools.... There re tins dat re way beyond u...if u don't know wat to say pls keep ur mouth shut
I kinda concur with him...becux am yet to see an A~list actors going after politician publicly.....

Huhuhuhu, money works,bullshit talks...
He is entitled to his opinion as it may not be entirely true.
I agree wiv him,
Davido's GF
Poverty and laziness i must add. That's simply d difference btw hollywood and nollywood. Some Nigerian actors and actresses can't even have a decent lifestyle.
Couldn't have been more correct!
He should take several seats jawe,how is he different 4rm dem
I don't comment frequently...buh I v to write dis..he is dere yabbing his fellow actors ab8 dancing n doing unnecessary tins for politician..he is currently in ibadan dancing lyk sometin else...I saw him on TV right nau at APC presidential campaign rally in Mapo..
Hmmm
There is poverty. I don't blame anyone.
Shalom in Nigeria, Amen.
I saw saheed for apc campaign in ibadan so wetin he come mean..i abi make he go slip
Lemme hear
He's saying the sad truth. All of them are running after these politicians because of what they hope to gain. You don't see the celebs with money running after them. Do you see Davido, P-Square and co campaigning for anybody?

The time to upgrade is actually when you can get one yourself or when it is genuinely gifted. Not when u are ready to f**k for one. So take your number off the grid have some dignity.

True talk

It's not poverty but more material gains. Some of these naija musicians are ballers o don't forget!
I agree with what he said about piracy
True word @anon 5:49, if I have to be a begger, I beg God, not begging on blogs.

DIS R PPLE U KNOW R NOT REALLY DOING MUCH FOR D MASSES, SOME U R NOT SURE WIL FULFIL THEIR PROMISES EVEN THOSE WHO CORNERD PUBLIC PROPERTIES, FUNDS TO THEMSELVES & THEIR IMMEDIATE FAMILY . DONT GET ME WRONG THEY CAN RUN JINGLES & VOICING FOR THEM AT A PRICE WHICH ALSO MAKING MONEY BUT NOT U SHOW FACE CAMPAIGNING TO MASSES TO VOTE FOR ANY OFTHEM ESP IN LAGOS EXCEPT DESMOND WHO IS CONTESTING, IS A SHAME!

Did this idiot really say this? 'And it's sad because we're stars. I think we're supposed to be worshiped, not worshiping others. Even if a governor holds your hand, he's supposed to be happy. But now, the reverse is the case'. S ee this mumu o, as if all no be hussle una de hussle; reverse is which case, worship what...mumu de smell. If i could see u i will slap u back to earth.
