The actor has called on winner of the election, Muhammadu Buhari, to help kill corruption fast before it kills Nigeria.
Dele Odule stressed that since Nigerians have decided to embrace change, the President-elect should endeavour to fulfil the promises he made to the electorates.
“Firstly, let me congratulate every Nigerian on witnessing and participating in a free and fair election in the history of Nigeria amidst the high volume of tension in the country in the past few months. Surely, we’ve come to tell our politicians that our thumbs carry our votes; our votes remain our power to vote in, or vote out leaders that fail. Nigerians have taken the lead in the rejection of corruption.
"My message to you sir is to do as you’ve promised, kill corruption before corruption kills Nigeria. A bold step has been taken towards a new Nigeria and you sir cannot be unaware of what is expected of you.
"I pray that Allah guides and guards you as you take the step towards great goals.
Nigerians believe in you," the actor said in a statement on behalf of his association.
