A multiple Award-Winning Senegalese American
musician, Akon has urged musicians to go into politics to transform the world.
According to him, there are a lot of things that some of
the want to change or change or make it happen differently but cannot be done unless
they go into politics.
He added that he thought politics wasn’t for everyone and
that he told himself he was never going to do politics but however, the more he
got involved in politics, talking to other presidents, the more he realized how
people like him is needed in politics.
“A lot of things we want to change, a lot of things we
want to happen differently, but it can’t happen if we are not in there or part
of making that change,” he stated.
“You have got to be in the politics, you have got to be
in the room when decisions are being made to make a difference, so I realized
that. I think my future priority will be politics eventually,” he added.
