Speaking to The Nation, the 48-year-old ‘Owuro L’ojo’ singer revealed why he is considering going into politics.

“I think about politics all the time but I always think like: ‘where do you go?’ You will probably see me there in the next elections trying to do something, to be governor of some state or something. I am working on it because I don’t believe in just talking for the sake of talking” said Beautiful Nubia.

“So, I am looking at spending four years in politics and I have said it many times it won’t be more than four years because I cannot give my life to politics. If I could get a position even at the smallest level to lead some kind of change and document it and show our people what is possible” he further said.

Beautiful Nubia didn’t mention which state he will run as Governor, but since he was born in Ibadan in 1968 he would most likely be running for Governor of Oyo state.
