Patrick Doyle Critiques Entertainers for Political Greed
Patrick Doyle, a veteran Nollywood actor, publicly criticized his colleagues in the entertainment industry for their support of politicians, which he described as driven by greed. In an interview with Oyinmomo TV, Doyle expressed concern that entertainers are prioritizing personal financial gain over the welfare of the people.
He noted that many actors and filmmakers are already struggling financially and do not need to chase additional benefits from political campaigns. Doyle warned that aligning openly with politicians could create divisions within the entertainment industry, especially in light of the recent presidential elections, where he faced online backlash for his political choices.
He emphasized the importance of maintaining independence from government influence in the arts, urging entertainers to focus on their craft rather than political alliances.
