Veteran Nigerian actor Alapini Osa has sparked conversation after openly expressing regret over his support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu during the 2023 presidential elections. In a recent interview, Alapini revealed that he had backed Tinubu with the sincere belief that the former Lagos State governor would bring meaningful change to the nation.
Now, more than a year into Tinubu’s presidency, Alapini voiced his disappointment over the country’s current state. He cited worsening economic conditions, rising inflation, and growing public frustration as signs that the administration has failed to live up to its promises.
His remarks echo a growing sense of disillusionment among some Nigerians who feel betrayed by the hopes they placed in Tinubu’s leadership. As a well-known public figure, Alapini’s candid admission is notable—it highlights how even prominent supporters can lose faith when expectations are not met.
