Ace Nigerian music star Paul Okoye of the defunct PSquare group was recently on air at Naija FM, and he used that opportunity to join the trending conversation surrounding the planned national protests, which are set to kick off on August 1st, 2024.
While on a media tour to promote his new song, Vitamin D, the OAP asked King Rudy to share his thoughts about the upcoming protests.
During the conversation, King Rudy explained why he won't be participating in the protests and how the 2023 elections affected his psyche.
"Nothing concerns me again" - King Rudy
The singer noted that he has decided to stay away from Nigeria's politics and anything about it till he thinks otherwise.
Rudy said the last time he actively participated in the country's politics and tried to help bring change, Nigerians didn't listen to him, and nothing happened, so he decided to mind his business.
Legit.ng recalls reporting how Paul and his brother Peter Okoye declared their support for the Labour Party candidate, Peter Obi, during the 2023 elections.
