Popular Comedian, Okey Bakassi Returns From Imo State Politics

Popular Nollywood actor and stand up comedian Okechukwu Anthony Oyegbule aka Okey Bakassi has been away from the entertainment scene for quite a while now, well that is because he dabbled into politics or answerd the call to serve his people.

Okey Bakassi was always in every comedy movie and shows happening all around the country, until a few years back when he joined the former governor of Imo State, Ikedi Ohakim as a Senior Special Assistant. Due to his commitment to the new challenge, he droped everything entertainment and became a full fledged politician, however Ikedi Ohakim failed in his re-election bid and so came an end to S.A Okey Bakassi sojourn in politics.

Gist has it now that the actor/comedian turned politician is finding his way back into the entertainment industry, but will be playing a more significant role, safe to say he will be taking part in only big budget events and movies. During a recent interview the ace comedian had this to say:

I think Okey Bakassi has a very valid point, since he has seen the big bucks while in politics and enjoying VIP status, he certainly cannot jump on any kind of arrangement, it must be serious minded people with serious cash.

When you are big, you can't do small (you dig!). Welcome back from service sir!
