Nigerian Afropop artiste, Tony Tetuila who contested in the last elections has recounted his experience participating in Kwara State politics. The entertainer noted that the governor of Kwara State, Abdulfatah Ahmed promised him a political appointment, but he is yet to get it.
Speaking in a chat with Punch, he said: “I took a break from music for 11 years because I wanted to face my other businesses and politics as well. I had to focus on my political career. The Kwara State governor actually promised me a political appointment which I am still waiting for. But I cannot wait forever. If God says it is my fate, then, I would definitely get it.
“I spent a lot of money during my foray into politics but I decided to come back to music which is what I know how to do best. When it comes to politics, if you do not get the position you are contesting for, it simply means that you would run at a loss. I thank God because I may have lost money but I gained a lot of experience.
“I know more about politics than I did before. Politics is all about patronage and deceit. If you meet the right people, your dreams would come true. But if you meet the wrong people, your dreams would turn into a nightmare. I learnt a lesson and even though I did not win, it does not mean that I am going to back off”.
