In the fresh interview, Olaiya said he doesn't regret his action in campaigning for Tinubu.
Veteran actor, Olaiya Igwe has said that he has zero regrets for throwing his weight behind President Bola Tinubu in the 2023 Presidential polls.
He disclosed that if given another opportunity, he would still do it again.
Recall that weeks before the presidential election, Olaiya went to the beach n3ked to offer prayers for Tinubu to succeed in the election. He suffered serious backlash as many felt his action was unbefitting of an actor who is well respected in his industry.
On February 5 this year, he released a video apologising to people offended by his action. The actor and producer explained that he did it because Tinubu was there for him when he was ill, and afterwards he got a revelation to go n3ked at the beach to pray for him.
In the fresh interview, Olaiya said he doesn't regret his action in campaigning for Tinubu.
‘’Some people claim my apologising for going to the beach meant that I regret campaigning for Tinubu. I do not regret campaigning for Tinubu. If I have another opportunity to do things that I can to make Tinubu win the election again so that this country will become better, I will do it. I do not regret it at all''
