Okey Bakassi Speaks On His Love For Nigeria

Nigerian comedian and actor Okey Bakassi has revealed how his undiluted love for Nigeria ended because of the Buhari administration.
The veteran comedian made this known via his Twitter page on Friday, July 1, 2022.

“I lost my “virginity” under Buhari’s administration…yes!…my love for Nigerian was pure and unbroken until Buhari happened to us in 2015. I can’t recognize my beloved country anymore,” he tweeted.

Okey Bakassi’s tweet is coming weeks after he mocked those who criticized one of the presidential candidates, Peter Obi, over his trip to Egypt.

The Labour Party presidential candidate had recently tweeted about his trip to the Northern African country.

“Peter Obi critics are angry he went to Egypt for serious business instead of medical checkup in London,” he tweeted.

Since the election season began, several Nigerian celebrities have been vocal about not just their choices but also about citizens’ participation in the forthcoming elections.

“I have just instructed my security and my management that No one is allowed to visit my house or my office without showing their PVC!” Peter Okoye of PSquare tweeted.

Okoye and some of his colleagues have been at the forefront of voter registration ahead of the 2023 general elections.
