Veteran Nollywood actress Opeyemi Aiyeola has called on her colleagues to reflect on their political choices, especially their support for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), as insecurity continues to rise across the country.

In a video shared online, the actress spoke about the need for people in the entertainment industry to put conscience before personal gain. Her message comes after reports of a terrorist attack on Christians during Palm Sunday in Jos, Plateau State.

Aiyeola expressed concern that the incident did not receive as much public attention as expected. She linked this to the ongoing political climate, urging Nigerians, especially those with influence, to speak up.

She said, “We woke up to another news of terrorist attack in Jos. But unfortunately, it is not trending as usual. It is another political season and I would like Nigerians on ground and those with voices on social media to search through their consciences and do the right thing.”

The actress also addressed her colleagues directly, warning against allowing wealth or status to influence their decisions.

“My colleagues, everything shouldn’t be about money, influence and affluence. Let us allow our conscience to lead us and do the right thing. My wonderful colleagues, I’m not throwing a shade at anybody and nobody can tell you how to swing politically but you should think of your generation’s future.”

Her remarks highlight growing concerns among public figures about the state of security in Nigeria and the role of influential voices during politically sensitive periods.

Aiyeola’s message adds to the ongoing conversation about responsibility and accountability among public figures in Nigeria. As political activities continue, her call serves as a reminder for individuals to weigh their decisions carefully and consider the broader impact on society.
