I’m Not Going Into Politics To Make Money – Dayo Adeneye Open Up

Just a few days ago showbiz personality & co-owner
of Kennis Music, Dayo Adeneye, popularly known as D1 announced
his intention of joining politics in Nigeria and he
stated that he will be contesting for a seat in the
Ogun State House of Assembly.

With the high number of Nigerian entertainers who
have joined the political sector in recent time, a lot of people
have start to wondering if there is an ulterior
motive to their actions.

Well Dayo Adeneye has come forward to refute
that and state that he is not going into politics
for the money.
According to Dayo, he is not motivated by
money, but by the need to create a change and
impact positively on his people.

Dayo Adeneye stated, "Anybody who knows
me will testify that I made money when I was
young.

I was a millionaire in my 20s.

I have built my houses.

Kenny and I were among the first people in
Nigeria to own Hummer Jeeps.

We were also among the first to own the
latest models of the Range Rover Sport
Utility Vehicle.

This is not about boasting; I have made my
mark.

I am not looking for money. Everybody knows
my pedigree.

I am a hard-working person and I have
businesses in communication and hospitality.
My campaign is funded from my private
savings account.

I am not depending on anybody to bankroll it.

I am not begging anybody for funds, though
my friends and my relations are willing to help.

I am funding my campaign from my pocket.

I am going into politics to serve.

I have decided that, since my children are in
the university, now is the time to help build
my country.
What future am I going to leave for my
children if they have no country to come back
to? So I am not going into politics for money.
Look at the rot in this country.
We cannot all just sit back in our sitting
rooms and continue to complain that the
country is not good; the roads are bad and
the power sector is not working.
Somebody has to come out and do something
about these things.
Now is the time to help solve the problems in
my country.
And this is why I am running for a seat in the
Ogun State House of Assembly"
