June 05, (THEWILL) – On Air Personality, actor and comedian, Steve Onu, aka Yaw, has said that fellow entertainers should do more to encourage their fans to vote wisely.
Yaw, who is putting finishing touches to preparations for his forthcoming three-day event tagged, Po, that will feature a satirical play, music, dance and comedy, said that one of the major reasons for the show is to sensitise Nigerians to exercise their civic rights in the forthcoming elections.
He said, “It is a three-day show because the play is (meant) to sensitise people to governance. It is a satire about the part that members of society play (in politics). It is not just about those in power. We are all in this together.
“If we do not get it right now with the way Nigeria is, I do not know what will become of us. The play is a medium to encourage people to vote wisely. I believe that entertainers should constantly encourage their fans and other citizens to vote for the leaders they want.”
He, however, noted that he had no interest in joining politics.
“I am not thinking of contesting any political post, now or in the future. I can never contest. I just want to be in my corner and contribute to uplift the society through my works.”
