I regret working for APC, I didn’t collect much – Actress, Ronke Oshodi

Following her observations during the EndSARS protest, Nollywood actress Ronke Oshodi Oke has expressed regret for her involvement in campaigning for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

In October 2020, Nigerian youths took to the streets to denounce police brutality and demanded the disbandment of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS).

During a recent interview with Chude Jideonwo, Ronke Oshodi Oke disclosed that she had accepted money to support the APC’s campaign, although the amount she received was not significant. However, she confessed that her confidence in the party diminished after witnessing the events that unfolded during the October 2020 protest.

“I felt APC is going to take Nigeria to the next level. So even while we were campaigning for them, I didn’t collect much. I wasn’t looking at the money, I was looking at what is going to happen later. All that they have been doing, I was thinking eight years cannot fix Nigeria. We all know that. But when the EndSARS protest came up, I was so down.

I was really really down because our governor was saying three different things at the same time. They said they didn’t kill anybody. But if one person died, fifty people have died with that one person. The people that person is feeding, their parents and siblings. I was really down. I regretted working for them.” she said
