Nigerian rapper Jude Abaga admits he made an error when he backed the All Progressives Congress party. The artist who goes by M.I told listeners during a Menism podcast appearance that his 2015 decision proved wrong. He explained that corruption within the People's Democratic Party drove his support for APC candidates. The musician believed change was necessary for Nigerian democracy at that time. His vocal support helped encourage other citizens to vote for the opposition party.
Critics attacked M.I after he posted messages about violent attacks against farmers in Benue State. Social media users reminded the rapper about his previous political endorsement during the confrontation. The artist acknowledged that people questioned his right to criticize government actions. He defended his position by explaining his original motivation for supporting the party. M.I emphasized that all humans make mistakes despite their best intentions.
The performer expressed disappointment with how APC leaders have governed since taking power. He stated that the party failed to match his expectations for positive change. The government has not delivered the reforms that attracted his initial support. M.I described the current APC as different from what he had hoped to see. The reality of their leadership does not align with his original vision.
The rapper has shifted his focus toward working directly with young Nigerians. He plans to use his music career and public platform for community building efforts. M.I wants to collaborate with other youth leaders on projects that improve the country. The artist believes grassroots work can create more meaningful progress. He hopes this approach will produce better results than political endorsements.
