Responding to Kehinde Okikiolu, who asked if he had any regrets about taking thE campaign brief for Buhari, Jideonwo firmly stated that he did not. “It wasn’t image laundering, as people call it. It was the biggest political campaign of my generation, and it was the kind of work I wanted to do — to impact national outcomes and galvanize young people to be part of decision-making,” he explained. “I was so confident it would change the country. Now I know it’s arrogant to think you know what the future will bring.” He reflected on the internal lessons he learned from that experience, admitting that his past perspective was shaped by ignorance. “I thought people who voted the other way loved the country a bit less than me. But now I know they loved the country too; they just believed differently. To be foolish and grow out of foolishness is what makes us human,” he added. When pressed on whether he felt apologetic towards those who believed in Buhari won due to his influence, Jideonwo was candid. “I wish I felt apologetic, but I don’t like performing apologies. Authenticity is part of me. I know if I apologize, some people will feel better, but that’s not who I am,” he said.
