I will always appreciate that it was the industry that my path started from, that my shine started from. It is something that I respect, but it’s not something that has been in my life for a while now. So even after the election, it is not something I plan on bringing back.”

Tonto also commended her colleagues Funke Akindele and Banky W who are also vying for political offices.
