On Wednesday, the former APC national youth leader aspirant took to Ikeja bridge to apologise to those he thought he wronged, including members of the Labour Party (LP).
Olamide claimed that he was sick and had been abandoned by APC stalwarts.
“All APC politicians have abandoned me even though they know that I am currently very sick. Mummy Iyabo Ojo I am sorry, and Nigerians please stop insulting me in comment sections the insults are affecting my brain,” he said.
“All the APC politicians I helped no longer pick my phone calls again, please the election has already gone and past all I need from you all right now is prayers and support, I am terribly sick now and I am facing a lot of challenges in life.”
Curiously, there have been speculations on social media that Olamide is an APC thug who unleashed violence on LP members during the elections.
Eko Hot Blog found out that these claims are unfounded and there is no evidence to support them.
Olamide, a member of the APC, is prominent on social media for discussing politics.
