The actor has been a staunch supporter of Tinubu’s ambition but his decision to visit the beach butt naked has been widely condemned among some of his close friends.
A popular media personality, Do2dtun in a tweet said: “The video of Olaiya Igwe going butt naked is despicable and disgusting. It’s okay to support whoever you choose but even to the person you are doing that for, they will be appalled by that level of filth.. your maturity should have a place in history. This is lower low.”
Recall that popular actors like Jide Kosoko, Oga Bello, Yinka Quadri, Saidi Balogun, Joke Sylva among others had openly declared their support for the 2023 presidential ambition of Tinubu.
