With Nollywood actor, Desmond Elliot, Kenneth Okonkwo, Kate Henshaw as well as 9ice, Tony Tetuila among entertainers who have announced their intention to go into politics, Clarion, in a recent exclusive interview with Punch, has come hard against them.
She said: –
‘The motive of those who are embracing partisan politics is purely monetary. Let us call a spade a spade. If you tell me that you want to go into politics to serve the people, I would want to look at your record first. I want to see what you have done to better the lives of the people in your immediate community. How many boreholes have you sunk in the community? How many hours of community service have you given for free over the last four or five years? How well are you known as somebody who yearns for improvement in social development?’
Clarion Chukwura, currently holder of AMAA Best Actress award, is the first Nigerian actress to pick up the Best Actress gong at the 1982 FESPACO Film Festival in Burkina-Faso.
