Veteran Nollywood actor, Jide Kosoko, has explained why he does not regret campaigning for President Muhammadu Buhari in 2015.
The famous Youruba actor said even though he is disappointed in some of the actions of Buhari, he can’t say he is totally bad.
Kosoko stated this during a chat with Premium Times.
When asked if he regrets campaigning for the President, he said: “No, I can never regret it. All Nigerian youths saying different things, let them show us who to follow, do you know who will do well, do you know?

“Professor Wole Soyinka was appointed the founding Corps Marshall of the FRSC, he ran away, he could not stand it. So, tell me if you are able to confirm to me that Jide Kosoko is the best to govern us, then I will follow you. But nobody knows, we are all making trial and error.”
He added: “I cannot speak for the government but I can’t say Buhari’s government is totally bad but I’m disappointed in some of his actions.
“Buhari knows that discipline is his watchword, I wanted to believe him then, but he should know that in getting a corrupt-free society you would face quite a lot of antagonism.”
