After miraculously surviving a brain surgery that kept him out of the country for months, ace comedian, Julius Agwu appears to be retracing his steps and focusing on other plans aside from politics.
It will be recalled that Agwu was rumoured to be aspiring for the governorship seat of Rivers State during the 2015 elections, but the dream never materialised as Agwu later opted out of the race after it emerged that his chances of winning were slim.
Shortly after the elections, many expected to hear from him about his next political plans, but there was no news from him.
At a world press conference held in Victoria Island, Lagos State, the veteran comedian unveiled his plans for the new year, just as he hinted that he would not be going into politics again. He also used the medium to inform his fans about the rebirth of his comedy show, Life as I see It’, which comes up on February 7 at Eko Convention Centre, an adding that the show would feature international and local artistes. The show, according to Agwu, will be hosted by world famous comedian and actor, Steve Harvey.
Speaking on his decision to quit politics, he said “I’ll never do politics again. I’m now fully into comedy evangelism and entertainment. Nigeria is in serious mess. I know Buhari has a mission and the present situation of the economy is affecting all of us. I believe we should feel the pains now and enjoy the dividends later.”
Giving his reason, he said, popular musicians and comedians such as Eddy Kaddy, Onyeka Onwenu, Seyi Brown, Buchi, Senator, Dan D Humuorus, Mimiko, Bez, Waje, Yinka Ayefele, BankyW will perform live at the event.
