Veteran Nollywood actor, Mr Ibu has clarified reports on the
viral video of him endorsing the National Leader of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), Ahmed Tinubu for 2023 presidency.
In a video shared on his Instagram page, Mr Ibu said he was
at the event where Tinubu was endorsed.
He clarified that former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar is
his candidate if he decides to run for presidency in 2023 and not Tinubu.
According to the actor, Atiku has helped him a lot in the
past and he had no intention of dumping him for another candidate.
He said: “People approached me of Tinubu’s involvement to
contest for president of Nigeria, I’m a completely independent person, anything
that has to do with any thing publicly you should address me on that. I don’t
know why this thing is going round like this.
“I’ve never run sideways, it’s been me and Atiku who has
helped me in so many ways and if he is running for president certainly Atiku is
my candidate.
“Atiku is like a father to me, been working for him even in
his own State, so I wouldn’t abandon him. I’m not trying to pull Tinubu down
but he’s not my candidate, Atiku is my candidate.
“Anybody I visited is just simply a visitation. As an actor
they wanted me to assist them in one way or the other that does not mean I’ve
abandoned my candidate and fathers. Everybody is contesting in 2023 and may God
help them.”
