Just as many are counting down to the general elections (37 days left), news coming in has revealed that three of Nigeria’s top entertainers will be missing in action on February 14, the date assigned for Nigeria’s presidential elections.
The three Nigerian celebrities are Olamide, Wizkid and Basketmouth. They will not be voting for either PDP or APC.
Reason why they will not be voting has nothing to do with any political leanings or belief. Their non-participation in the elections has to do with a show in the UK where they will be performing on that same day.
The news reveals that the show is a concert powered by GTB at the Apollo Event Centre in London.
The trio had a remarkable 2014 as Wizkid and Olamide both dropped an album just before the year wrapped up which is still enjoying massive airplay across the nation while Basket on the other hand recorded a huge success with his show ”Basketmouth Uncensored”.
However, as 2014 came to a conclusion, it became a year characterized by many entertainers and musicians in the industry who began to announce their political ambitions as many of them strived to make it into one aspect of the government or the other.
But this was to no avail as most of the entertainers (such as 9ice, KSB, Dayo Adeleye), all lost out in the primaries with just a few successful in the primaries and getting ready for the big one on February 14.
