Tinubu will relegate Yorubas to the ground with his greed.



Seyi Etaje wrote:
"After Ekiti elections I just started seeing Yorubas as very malicious people. Kilode. The abuse people from Ondo got is not as bad as what the people from Ekiti are getting. Contrary to what people are saying. It is not rice that made them change. It wasn't even Fayemi that was the problem. Fayemi is a good man in a wrong party. Apc lost their bearing a long time ago. Thanks to Tinubu. He has made nonsense of awolowos policies. Installing people here and there. Joining Gambari and the worst of all denying south west the number four position in Nigeria. what kind of bad belle politics is that. Then the southwest started shouting that they are marginalised. Who caused it? I loved Tinubu so much before. In my house I would argue with my dad who is biased because Jonathan is from south- south like him.
