Nigerian
entertainers who have been going into politics to get heard are starting to
face the rigors of politics in Nigeria. While some are getting set to contest
for seats in various House of Representatives, others are being kicked out of primaries.
The
All progressive party that has been the choice party for most entertainers had
their primaries on the 2nd of December 2014 and gospel singer Kenny
Saint Brown who sought to represent Ikeja Constituency 1 lost out to Folajimi
Mohammed who is also the son of APC publicity secretary.
On
the other hand, Nollywood actor, producer and director, Desmond Elliot who is a
Lagos state indigene, born to a Yoruba father and an Igbo mother, victoriously
grabbed the party’s ticket for the Surulere 1 Constituency and would be
contesting against 4 other representatives from different parties.
