Oh Dear! Kunle Afolayan Plans To Permanently Relocate

Nollywood actor Kunle Afolayan on his Facebook page said, he
has tried his possible best to keep the country’s flag flying high, but it seems our
leaders just wants it permanently down. The actor complained about not having
stable electricity in the country for years and now the new craze of queuing
endlessly at few filling stations and still not getting fuel at the end of the day. Here is what the
actor wrote on his page;

“YES! It is high time I started considering relocation.
To where? I don’t know but it’s something that has been bothering me for some
time now. I have always been an advocate of “Yes we are Nigerians and so shall
it be” but for some time now the reality of the state of the Nigerian Nation is
beginning to take its toll on me. Does our government consider us worthy
citizens of Nigeria or we are just fooling ourselves? Continue after the cut.

There is no electricity to start with and that has been the
case since I was born, now I have worked very hard and I am able to afford
generator of any size but there is no fuel to run any of them, neither is there
fuel to even move around when you need to attend to business. The life of a
Kunle Afolayan is even better than that of majority of most Nigerians and every
day I wonder and I ask what the future holds for ‘Iya Basira’ who sells
wosiwosi and other petty traders whose goods is sometimes worth less that
N10,000.

I am sure a lot of people will consider me a millionaire
after I have made a few successful feature films that have recorded good box
office figures and international recognition, But the truth is, it’s all make
believe just as it is in the movies. If I was living in a better Nation and
well-structured country, I probably will be living the life of a celebrity by
now but the truth and reality is that, I am still a tenant and so is a lot of
our so called celebrities in Nigeria and I am owing banks millions.

As a matter of fact, everybody in my house owns two
passports, one for Nigeria and the other is for what is considered to be the
most powerful country in the world, I have refused get my citizenship of
America because of my sentiments of being “ PROUDLY NAIJA”. E be like say I don
wake up now!! Make I carry my “ENTERPRENEURIAL ENERGY “and talent go elsewhere
jare…
