It is a common honorary title in Yoruba land. conferred by different obas or kings


Tinubu was given the title by the Oba of Eko( Lagos) and therefore is the Asiwaju of Eko of Lagos Town .

Many people assume he is Asiwaju of Lagos State or even Yoruba land . This is inaccurate

Tinubu no doubt aspires to be Asiwaju of Yoruba land


Recently in a time of crisis , he has gone missing. This would not be the first time.
I should be clear to all right thinking Yoruba just now that he does not Si waju rara ati rara

Ero eyin ni Tinubu. Ojo si ni pelu

He has lost whatever respect he has and should quietly retire and enjoy his bullion
that means it loosely translates to Odumeje in igbo

I like how this discussions isn't influenced by awon oloripelebe.


Anyways, I prefer tinubu to shut up than to say "where are the cows"

you could have reason logically and realise that the asiwaju we are saying here is yoruba asiwaju which means a forerunner and a leader

just look out how frustrated you are because of hatred for Tinubu.
Is Tinubu the cause of farmer herders clash?

Is Tinubu the commander of service chief?

Is Tinubu the only yoruba leader that didnt speak?

You guys dont see him as a leader yet you re always crying for his opinion in all issues is that not hypocrisy

Go and rest

You are delusional

Tinubu has ALWAYS been a sectional leader so stop deceiving yourself. His section is Lagos not even the SW

He cannot hold Oyo Ondo or Ekiti.

No one is asking him to protect but he should not be a coward . He should speak

When he speaks he should not ask Where are the cows

Tell us one state outside the SW where he has influence

Tinubu is there for himself and his family

What has his wife achieved for Lagos in the Senate?
He got his daughter appointed as Iyaloja of Lagos by Akiolu and she is extorting computer village in Ikeja

Is Akiolu Oba of Lagos state


The same Tinubu that calls Obas of Yorubaland atenuje

Ojo esin Tinubu ti su

He could not even hold Edo

MD of NPA is Aboki the entire security apparatus Aboki

The airports and seaport in Lagos is full of illiterate abokis

If Tinubu had any honour he should have left the government instead he was disgracing himself with bullion vans

Too bitter of a human......

Is he ur councilor,gvnor, minister, president

Does he hold any political post to effect any or deploy any ? .........

He was kind by that label. You are suffering from a terrible kind of mental leprosy that you should be quarantined on another planet else you desicrate the earth with your purile assertions.

You want a rabble rouser? You have one in that dog you guys unleashed called Igoho or whatever that "Yoruba Nasan" mad man is called.

You are beyond frustrated. You are so ill mentally that I feel a deep sense of empathy for all those around you. It must be painful watching you bark like a rabid infected dog on Tinubu's matter.
Go get help. He will be president next year and if you are not healed by then, you'll be remanded to a maximum mental hospital where people with your sort of delusions are kept.
Omo àbínpàbé, ìkéjì dìgbòlúgí!

Leper?

You feel strongly enough about Tinubu to call me a leper?
What makes me a leper?

That I have different politics from you?
I hope that on reflection you will apologize

You have gone too far

You got it.
It also means Leader. First among equal s .

When Belgian authority returned the last part of Lumumba's remains and people complained of injustices to African Nations. I reminded them MKO Abiola studied the injustices to African and Blacks in Diaspora.

He started a project on Reparations and Repatriation against inhumanity and damages to African and Blacks in Diaspora.

At the height of that struggle he joined Politics and died. Since then, in Africa, nobody has grown to Abiola stature to continue that struggle.

The project received acknowledgements from OAU ( now AU) and all African countries with submissions and representations to UN.

MKO Abiola was number one in Africa. That is one of the reasons the bittered tribe never wanted anybody to become a colossus and a man of no easy means again from MKO kindred.
This was the main reason foreign powers killed him. Unfortunately, not many people are aware of this and the fact that history is being suppressed makes it even worse.

So what you are saying is since we all have only one vote we should shut up . Or those who like Tinubu have more than one vote?

You are being obtuse with the revelation that I have only one vote.

Clearly only those who say what is palatable to you should speak

So if I say Nigeria will not win the World cup I am flattering myself?
Have you never made statement about who will or will not win elections? Everyone who has an interest in politics or any competition does that. How is that self flattery

What is clear is that you have an intolerant mindset especially for those opposed to your god Tinubu

Yes he willl not be president

Not only wil he not be president he will not be APC's candidate

That is my projection
