MC Oluomo Promised Us ₦1.5m Each for Tinubu’s Campaign But Paid Nothing — Actor Lalude.
Veteran Nollywood actor Fatai Adekunle Adetayo, widely known as Lalude, has publicly called out the president of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), Musiliu Akinsanya, aka MC Oluomo, for allegedly failing to fulfil financial promises made to entertainers who supported President Bola Tinubu and Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu during the 2023 general elections.
Appearing on a recent episode of the Beyond the Fame podcast, Lalude expressed his deep disappointment, revealing that he and fellow celebrities were promised ₦1.5 million each by MC Oluomo, but never received any payment.
According to the actor, who is renowned for his traditional priest roles in Yoruba films, he and others, including comic actor Ganiu ‘Alapini’ Nafiu, were camped for over seven weeks, campaigning daily without proper compensation.
“At first, they gave us ₦10,000 daily for feeding, but even that was abruptly stopped,” he said. “We trekked long distances every day while MC Oluomo followed in his car. In the end, we were completely abandoned.” Lalude further stated, “We finished the work and no dime was given to us.
Is it good? It was MC who called us. He promised me and Alapini ₦1.5 million each. He told us to name our price — we did. Till today, we got nothing.” He added bitterly, “He took us to the place where we lodged to campaign for the president. Whoever is behind these misdeeds will not prosper.
I know they’ll come back to us in 2027. We’re waiting for them.” Lalude’s revelation comes shortly after similar sentiments were expressed by fellow veteran actors Ganiu Nafiu (Alapini) and Bukky Adekogbe Raji (Aminatu Papapa), who both publicly voiced their regret over supporting Tinubu during the 2023 elections.
