The renowned veteran Yoruba actor Olaiya Igwe, better known by his stage as Ebun Oloyede, has publicly apologized to Nigerians for his nude beachside campaigning photo op in support of Bola Tinubu.
The actor revealed that his actions were motivated by a spiritual revelation he claimed to have received on Tinubu in a now-deleted video that he posted on his Instagram account on Monday.
In the video, Igwe acknowledged Tinubu’s assistance, particularly in matters related to his health, as the reason ALSO: Tinubu Needs Your Support To Defeat Terrorists, Kidnappers – Gbajabiamila Tells Nigerians
Speaking inl Yoruba, Olaiya said, “Because of things he has done for me, health-wise, and I received a revelation to pray for him at the beach, which I did.
“I was criticised and cursed after I did, but I didn’t care. I wasn’t annoyed with him (Tinubu), and neither did I react negatively to him. I knew the criticism was inevitable because I am a much-loved actor.
“People who didn’t expect my actions must have been shocked, wondering why I did what I did. I know the criticism would have come from Bola Tinubu’s rival parties.”
Igwe attracted attention in 2023 for praying naked at a beach for Tinubu.
