Veteran Yoruba actor Olaiya Igwe, also known as Ebun Oloyede, has become the center of attention on social media following the release of an apology video.
The actor had made headlines during the 2023 general election campaign when he went unclothed by the seaside to campaign for Bola Tinubu, Nigeria's current president. In the now-deleted video, Olaiya Igwe attributed his controversial campaign move to a revelation he received about Tinubu, particularly expressing gratitude for the president's support during his health challenges.
The apology video has sparked a wave of reactions on social media, with netizens expressing both criticism and support. Despite the backlash, Olaiya Igwe stands by his actions, emphasizing that life comes with its share of curses and insults.
This incident adds another layer to the actor's recent activities, including being a recipient of a new Benz from former NURTW leader MC Oluomo.
