Majek
Fashek plans to delve into the political world and support Goodluck Jonathan
for re-election into power.
Veteran Nigerian musician, Majek Fashek has
revealed his desire to go into politics in 2015. The ‘Send Down The Rain’
singer who ruled Nigerian music in the early 90s believes he has the power to
support political aspirants next year.
Speaking
with Pulse.ng, Majek Fashek revealed that he is making the step into the
political world to support the President of Nigeria, Goodluck
Jonathan, and push him for re-election in next year’s general
election.
“Next
year, I’m going to be entering into politics. I am going to be in the PDP”, Majek
declared. “I will support the president. I will support the president and
the governor, that’s why I enter into politics. With my knowledge in the
American world, presidency is not my calling, I’m a revolutionary musician, so
what I can do with the power God gave to me is to support the government so
that they can help the poor.”
Majek
Fashek also revealed that he has no interest in occupying Aso Rock. For
him, it is too much of work to be the president.
“The
presidency is too much work, I don’t like it. Instead of me to become a
president, I will support the president.”
Majek
Fashek also believes we are in an era of political transformation, and the only
good choice of government lies in continuation.
“In
2015, I am supporting Goodluck Jonathan, because he needs a second term like
Obama. We are in the political era, and we are going into political transition.
We either re-elect Goodluck Jonathan or somebody else. But so far, I think
Goodluck needs second term to try his best.”
Majek
Fashek will be performing at the ‘Africa Meets Reggae And
World Music International Festival’ on November 29, at the National
Stadium, Lagos.
He will be joined by other veteran acts such as Victor
Essiet, Ortis Williki and Righteous
Man.
