Segun Arinze Is Maybe Clearing Road For His One Political Campaign Soon.

In the last few weeks, the Internet and social media have been bombarded with news of entertainers declaring their political ambitions. Celebs like 9ice, kate Henshaw, Julius Agwu, Kenny Saint Brown, Bob Manuel Udokwu and Desmond Elliot have already gone on record to state their interest in contesting for different political positions across the country come 2015.

The news has been met with some criticism from some of their fans.

Nollywood actor, Segun Arinze, has come to the defense of his colleagues who are seeking
political office. He said despite the criticism they face, the foray of artistes and entertainers into politics is a welcome development.

He said,

It is good for the industry and is also good for the country at large. And I think they will do well. Someone who decides to run or come into an office knows why he or she decided to run for that office in the first place. I don’t think they are going into politics for the money. I’m not going to be one of the people who would come out and say they are going into politics for the money. But they are going there to positively affect society.
