Nollywood actress cum politician, Tonto Dikeh has taken to social media to advise Nigerians to vote wisely in the upcoming general elections.
Contrary to the popular notion that people should vote with their conscience, the mother of one said she would not encourage such because the average Nigerian does not have conscience.
She advised them to vote wisely because she believes their pain and suffering will push them to make the right choice.
She wrote,
“Telling a Nigerian to vote with their Conscience is the worst thing to do because normally WE NO GET Conscience.
I WOULD RATHER SAY VOTE WISELY BECAUSE the next 8years of your life and the growth of this great country depends on your choice.
We aren’t so wise either but I believe that OUR PAINS, SET BACKS, LACKS AND SUFFERING SHOULD GIVE US A LITTLE BIT OF WISDOM..”

A while back, Tonto Dikeh revealed that she’s quitting acting to focus on her political career.
The deputy governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Rivers State, who made this disclosure during an interview with BBC News Pidgin, said she would not be returning to Nollywood after the governorship election.
According to Tonto, she will not return to the movie industry even if her party loses the governorship election in Rivers State.
When asked if she has completely retired from acting, Tonto said, “I don’t like movies like that again. It’s been a long time since I acted on screen, you know.”
