Veteran Nollywood actress Opeyemi Aiyeola has called on her colleagues in the movie industry who are still supporting the All Progressives Congress (APC) to rethink their stance amid rising insecurity in the country.
Speaking in a video, she urged them not to allow money, influence, and affluence to override their conscience, especially in a time of national concern.
Her comments came in reaction to a reported terrorist attack on Christians during Palm Sunday in Jos, Plateau State.
She said, “We woke up to another news of terrorist attack in Jos. But unfortunately, it is not trending as usual. It is another political season and I would like Nigerians on ground and those with voices on social media to search through their consciences and do the right thing.
“My colleagues, everything shouldn’t be about money, influence and affluence. Let us allow our conscience to lead us and do the right thing. My wonderful colleagues, I’m not throwing a shade at anybody and nobody can tell you how to swing politically but you should think of your generation’s future.”
Aiyeola emphasized that while individuals are free to make their political choices, they should also consider the long-term impact of their decisions on society and future generations.
