The support for the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu received a boost on Wednesday as Yoruba Nollywood stars openly endorsed the former Lagos State governor.
The actors made their position known in a video clip shared by veteran actor, Yinka Quadri, on his Instagram page.
In the video that has gone viral on social media, the actors took turns to praise the former governor of Lagos, stating that it was his turn to become Nigeria’s next president.

They also spoke about his support for the Yoruba movie industry and concluded by saying he was the best man for the job.
