Veteran Yoruba actor, Ebun Oloyede aka Olaiya Igwe has sent tongues wagging after he went unclad at the beach to pray for the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
In a viral 1:14-minute video, Olaiya Igwe can be seen raising his hands in prayers to God for Tinubu’s victory in the presidential election.
It was not the first time that a video of the actor would go viral for non-acting reasons.
Recall that in August, the actor was in the news for rolling on the floor while appreciating socialite, Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya aka MC Oluomo for giving him a car.
Since the latest video went viral on Twitter, many Nigerians have been baring their minds on the matter.
See tweet:
Ebun Oloyede aka Olaiya Igwe performing supplication on behalf of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the beach. This is totally disgraceful, a man in his sixties suddenly turns himself to an object of ridicule all in the name of loyalty. One thing is certain though, BAT ma lule gbeyin. pic.twitter.com/DQWIPuq61U

In Nigeria a "motor Park chairman" MC Oluomo can buy a brand new Benz as a gift but check out University professors and how hard it is for them to feed. We must Vote Wisely to avoid more of the disgrace Olaiya Igwe has brought to his family.

Olaiya igwe started from an arrangee phone conversation where the unknown person insulted him about his Car! Boom he got Mercedes Benz from McOluomo! Now that he has completely gone mad by going naked to pray for Tinubu! Just wait it might be a duplex coming his way. Guy man.

This Olaiya Igwe man might just have a mental illness that needs urgent medical attention.
Stripping naked is a big red flag …and all that delusion of religiousity….can't be normal

The video of Olaiya Igwe going butt naked is despicable and disgusting. It’s okay to support whoever you choose but even to the person you are doing that for, they will be appalled by that level of filth.. your maturity should have a place in history. This is lower low 🤮

That Olaiya Igwe video hit me bad sha. It’s as if it’s my Dad. It hit me bad bcos I remember watching Olaiya as a kid from Ìrù Ešïn to Ti oluwa nile and hundreds of movies he’s done. So painful to see despite all those decades of hard work, he’s going naked for politics.

Nigerian actors like Olaiya Igwe will never learn.
In 2014, the late Baba Suwe & Fadeyi Oloro supported the Buhari administration
If Nigeria was a normal country, Fadeyi Oloro won’t be begging Nigerians for money because he would be enjoying monthly pension and free healthcare.

The same Olaiya Igwe that we grew up to respect has reduced himself to ridicule, God bless help us to be very financially stable in our years of retirement.
