Artistes donate N.5m for Buhari’s re-election:


The Theatre Arts and Motion Picture Producers Association of Nigeria, (TAMPPAN) yesterday donated N500,000 for the re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari.

At the event held in Surulere, Lagos, the President of TAMPPAN, Mr Bolaji Amusan, popularly known as Mr Latin, lauded the performance of the Buhari administration.

He said the donation is a contribution to the President Buhari’s campaign organisation.

Amusan pledged the association’s commitment to support to President Buhari’s re-election.

The group urged the government to carry along their members at all levels of governance.

Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr Babatunde Fashola received the cheque on behalf of the Buhari’s campaign organisation.

Fashola urged the creative industry to deploy their talents to project positive values of integrity and dignity, which the President Buhari administration represents in the minds of the people.

He said it had become imperative for Nigerians to understand that the cardinal issue of contest in the Saturday and March 2 general elections was that of the change ideology.

He said the Buhari-led administration had continued to pursue this with verifiable indices in the best interest of the larger society rather than a few.

Fashola also reminded them of showbiz stars in the West, like former US President Roland Reagan and former Governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger, who made mark in political office.

He said: “It is important you continue to help propagate the message of change. And if you look in other jurisdictions, you will see that not only at election times do artistes and thespians play important roles in shaping the minds and the understanding of people.

“They also actually get involved and throw their hearts in the ring to serve and I want to suggest that your case here should not be different.

“So there is room for everybody but we need to get involved. You really need to get involved and there is a lot of work to do. We need every good hand that we can find.
