The actress wrote on Tuesday on her Instagram page, “Facts coupled by facts typically put an end to discussions, which inspires drastic decisions and changes for the greater good.

As I have always done through the Committee of Youth on Mobilisation and Sensitization (CYMS) platform in collaboration with the Federal Government, I have made the decision to set aside my emotions and work for the greater good of Nigerian youth, women, and the nation at large in light of the facts, goals, and vision of the current renewed hope agenda.

“Throughout the years, I have discovered that visionary leaders who give selflessly to better humanity are the source of impactful leadership.” This is a victory for all of our aspirations, hopes, and battles to leave positive legacies for the next generation, not just for myself.

“I want to reaffirm that, as a patriotic Nigerian, I think that Nigeria will prosper under President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope agenda.”
