Jude Okoye, popular Nigerian music executive and elder brother to music duo P-Square, is making headlines but not for entertainment this time.
The CEO of Northside Entertainment has weighed in on Nigeria’s political system, calling for urgent electoral reform that mandates a university degree as the minimum qualification to run for any political office.
Taking to his Instagram story, Okoye wrote:
“How hard is it to reform our electoral act, making at least a Uni bachelors degree a benchmark for qualification to run for any office in Nigeria, We can't have the uneducated leading the educated. Makes zero sense.”
