'I'm taking 8 years break from acting to do politics' - Kate Henshaw

Actress Kate Henshaw has revealed she plans to
take a break from acting to face politics squarely.
When asked if she's quitting acting for politics in
an interview with Sahara TV, Ms Henshaw said;
"Well, Well, I will take a break to serve the
larger population of Nigeria. I won't quit.
Arnold Schwarzenegger was Governor and
he is back to acting again. You take time
off,you serve your people. I don't hope to
be there forever. I just want to do, make
noise, leave when the ovation is loudest.
That's the best way. Yeah ...I don't want to
be there for 10 years, 12 years, 16 years,
that's the best way. I want to do other
things. 4-8 years, that's the limit you can
hold me to my word." Continue...
Asked if she won't want to exceed the 4-8 years
duration, Kate responded
"There has to be another person, who will
go through the process, who would want to
try. That's the problem. Too many people
stay in one place for so long and other
people just lose hope and say why would I
even bother. So let someone start getting
the knowledge. I would help whoever is in
the Cross River state to come with me, go
through the process, meet the elders,
whoever...get ready to take your chair
because nobody is going to come and pick
you. You have to push your head inside
there" she said
Asked if she has gathered enough money to
pursue her political ambition, Kate said
"There is no money. I can't match the
people who have been in the system for 20,
30 years. I am going with God and my
heart" she said
Asked if she will share money as most Nigerian
Politicians do, Kate said;
"I'm not sharing money. If you continue
sharing money, it will never stop. If you
want a change, a true change, then vote for
me and you will see the change. But if you
want money, hey, go for money and stay
where you are and don't even complain" she
said
Kate declared her intention contest for the Federal
House or Representatives for Calabar Municipal/
Odunkpani Federal Constituency under the PDP
on July 19th
