“APC Used Me” – Mr Jollof Speaks On His Support For Tinubu Amidst Fuel Hike [Video]
Nigerian comedian, Mr Jollof has claimed that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) “used and dumped” him.
Mr Jollof was a staunch supporter of President Bola Tinubu in the 2023 general election before he joined forces with former Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, who was the Vice Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
In a video shared on social media, the comedian explained that he changed his political stance when he came across a Bible passage that talk about the importance of acknowledging and rectifying one’s mistakes and errors.
Mr Jollof condemned the prevailing economic hardship in the country and vehemently opposed the recent fuel price hike.
He shared that he had warned Nigerians against supporting the APC after he left the party, but his advice was largely disregarded.
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.” (sic)
