David Oyelowo is a Nigerian-British actor who rose to fame after a movie in which he starred as Martin Luther King Jnr.
In a recent interview, David revealed what it was like connecting bak with Nigeria.
“I was in Nigeria about eight years ago and
a lot of things have changed. I see a huge progress has been made in
the country. It is nice to know that I can drive down a street and it
would not be bumpy because of potholes. It is a nice development. The
attitude of Nigerians has also changed and there is a real desire to rid
the country of corruption. Also, there has been technological
advancement in Nigeria. The mobile network revolution is amazing. I
lived in Nigeria from 1982 to 1989 and the infrastructure I have also
seen are really impressive.
”I am a very proud Nigerian and my prayer is
that the coming election would not have a negative connotation where
there would be any violence or corruption around the ballot boxes. There
is a very beautiful narrative building around Nigeria and we are
progressing in a lot of areas. I am just hoping that any troubles around
the election would not set us back,” he said. READ MORE
