Nollywood actress, Ronke Oshodi Oke, has revealed reason she regretted campaigning for the All Progressives Congress (APC) following the EndSARS protest that rocked the country in October 2020.

Speaking in a recent interview with Chude Jideonwo, Ronke Oshodi slammed the APC-led government for failing on its campaign promises.

Her words; “I felt APC is going to take Nigeria to the next level. So even while we were campaigning for them, I didn’t collect much. I wasn’t looking at the money, I was looking at what is going to happen later.

“All that they have been doing, I was thinking eight years cannot fix Nigeria. We all know that. But when the EndSARS protest came up, I was so down.

“I was really really down because our governor was saying three different things at the same time. They said they didn’t kill anybody. But if one person died, fifty people have died with that one person. The people that person is feeding, their parents and siblings.
