Former Big Brother Naija season four housemate, actor and model, Seyi Awolowo has expressed his desire to venture into politics.
The grandson of the late Nigerain nationalist, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, cited the current state of affairs in the country as the reason behind his interest in politics.
The 33-year-old spoke during his appearance on Channels TV’s ‘The Morning Brief’.
Seyi Awolowo said, “To be honest, I would have loved not to get into politics but with the way it seems in the country, I might have to. I would just have liked to enjoy and be on the backbone of entertainment.
“But I have a family that I’m looking forward to growing in this country, I’m not trying to ‘japa’. I want them to experience Nigeria the way I experienced Nigeria.
“You know being able to enjoy the full 36 states, go anywhere you want to, interact with other tribes. Just be a Nigerian in your country and not be limited to certain conditions and policies that can change at any time in foreign country.
“Since I was a child. People were always telling me that as an Awolowo child, this is how I was supposed to be, that I was always supposed to read books like my grandfather. A lot of older people always said that to me.”
