AWURUM SAID, “IT IS STUPIDITY FOR ONE TO SUPPORT PEOPLE WHO CANNOT IMPROVE THE COUNTRY. PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS KNOW THAT ONE IS DOING IT BECAUSE OF MONEY. I DON’T HAVE MONEY BUT I WON’T COLLECT MONEY FROM ANYBODY IN EXCHANGE FOR VOTING FOR THEM WHEN I KNOW THE PERSON IS NOT FIT FOR THE OFFICE. (FOR ENTERTAINERS WHO SUPPORT SUCH POLITICIANS), THAT IS THEIR BUSINESS. HOWEVER, I THINK WE ALL, AS NIGERIANS, SHOULD COME TOGETHER AND THINK OF HOW TO IMPROVE THE COUNTRY.”JAMB Result

Advising Nigerians to vote the right candidates, come 2023, he said, “Let’s vote the right people into elective offices. When we vote the right persons, we will be able to hold them accountable. And, if they don’t do what the people want, we would change them. More people need to be part of the system.”
The actor also maintained that though skit makers are increasing in popularity, they cannot phase out conventional actors. He said, “I cannot be phased out. What I have is God’s gift; it is not possible (for me to be displaced).”
