He Didn’t Follow The Plan – Actress Foluke Daramola Speaks On Regret Working For Tinubu In 2023
Nollywood actress Foluke Daramola-Salako has opened up about her regrets over supporting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu during the 2023 elections, saying things have not gone according to the plans she believed in.
Speaking in a recent interview, Daramola revealed that she was part of those who worked tirelessly to ensure Tinubu’s victory because she genuinely believed in his political agenda and promises. However, she expressed disappointment, noting that the reality after his swearing-in has been far from what was envisioned.
According to the actress, her decision was motivated by a desire to see a better Nigeria, but the challenges citizens are facing today have left her questioning if the right choice was made. She admitted that while no leader can completely solve a nation’s problems overnight, she expected quicker and more impactful results that would justify the sacrifices made.
Foluke Daramola stressed that her support for Tinubu was not for personal gain but out of patriotic duty. She added that the hardship, rising cost of living, and lack of visible improvements in key sectors have made it difficult to defend her stance to those who opposed her during the campaign period.
The actress also encouraged Nigerians to keep speaking up and holding leaders accountable, saying constructive criticism is necessary to push the government towards delivering on its promises.
Her candid remarks have sparked mixed reactions online, with some Nigerians praising her for her honesty, while others accused her of being part of the reason the current situation persists.
