Veteran Nollywood actor, Chiwetalu Agu has said that so many celebrities endorsing politicians today do that because of money.
The actor revealed this in an interview with Punch describing the act as lack of integrity and morality.
“These days, a lot of things have to do with money. Money can sway people. People are not patient again. What they count is what money does for them today, not tomorrow,” he said.
“Nobody is patient because things are hard. Integrity, morality and conscience have disappeared. What we are doing in Nigeria today puts me off.”

Agu also expressed disappointment over the turnout of things in the current administration despite promises of total eradication of insecurity.
“Buhari said that he would come and fight corruption to the finish, to put corruption in a very dire situation. But when he came, money began to exchange hands,” he added.
“Everything has gone gaga. Integrity no longer counts. I have lost hope in the (current) regime. As a matter of fact, what Buhari is doing is not leadership; it is ‘rulership’,” he said.
