This is generous to me.

Nigeria is more of a socialist country
Nothing is wrong with this gesture
The average man on the street care less about anything than surviving. Food is one means to survive.

Though sometimes I do think which is more essential to the common man on the street; their identity or stomach?

Someone Asked earlier: Why is he doing this? What is his end-game?

I will try to answer that question, as much as l can.

Tinubu believes that, as long as he panders to the North, they would help him clinch the Presidency even if the South does not vote for him.
His Birthday in kano, his #50M donation for a small market fire (While Yorubas in Shahsha market are not given a penny by him), his father Christmas in April Rice distribution in Kano, etc are part of his strategy to buy-over Northern Voters, especially the large voting block in Kano.

He wants to re-enact the OBJ strategy but he has overlooked a few things or maybe that was deliberate "blindness" caused by his Ambition:

- OBJ was brought out of Prison because the Northerners TRUST HIM AS A STOOGE-PRESIDENT.
In the case of Tinubu, the Northerners do not trust him at all, he is the one pandering to them.
Infact, l am almost certain that right now, some Northerners are doing "yinmu" behind his back! What is wrong in their people getting out of his Wealth and if we go back what Senator Shehu Sanni said (that if Tinubu had gone along with a Hausa interpreter who can translate what they are saying to him , he will be shocked. ) Meanwhile, he is Tolling Lagos to death at the same time.

- OBJ has a "Pedigree of Trust" with the Northerners, he handed over to them (Shagari) in 1979, so the TRUST was based on Evidence of History.
Tinubu on the other hand, can only claim he "helped Buhari to become President" (which is true) but that was a "transaction" in that it was about "You go first, then l go after your own tenure", it was not based on any Pedigree of Trust, as was in OBJ's case.

- OBJ has an a good career in the military, though like all military leaders, he was also a "looter".
They loot with "authority and military fiat". So most of their looting is 'coded', even though no-less extensive
Tinubu on the other hand, having been a Governor of Lagos and "Lord of Bourdillon", has a very "Tainted Character", especially from the point of view of those looking at him from the outside. He is percieved as a Drug baron, an endless Looter of Lagos Resources, an very "greedy over-lord" who planted himself and family members in almost every cash-generating resource in Lagos and the South West (From LCC, Lekki Toll-gate, to Lagos Inland Revenue Alpha Beta Scam, to Iya Loja of Lagos, to Lagos BRT, installing his Cousin as Osun Governor... the list is endless.
If it generates money in Lagos, it is owned/headed by a Tinubu Family or loyalist!

- OBJ has the "loyalty of the military Code" in that Nigerian military men tend to support themselves and they rape the country's treasury, that is why an OBJ will not probe an IBB and an Abdusalam will not probe an Abacha, despite the obvious trial of evidence of corruption. Thus, their comradeship is very solid
Tinubu on the other hand, is a Civilian Politician and Politicians are well known 'to flip', once their interest is no longer served. It i always about themselves and how much money they can make from it.
Tinubu is right now, "trying to BUY the loyalty of the North", he feels once he has that 'in the bank', he is set.
One will wonder, that with the amount of opposition to his candidacy in the South of Nigeria, especially the SE and SW, he should be placating them first but Hell-No, he believes they has a Dog in this fight and would eventually coalesce to his side.

The advent of Tinubu in the Politics of the South West has its good sides but on the overall, he did more damage to the psyche of Yoruba Youths in the last twenty years, than any other Politician.
On the average, the SW Youth aspires to be an Area Boy, Agbeero, Owo'mida, Political thug, Street Urchin, Okada/Maruwa Driver, Omo'onile that sells his Parents Property and Family Land and other despicable virtues, not because they are less intelligent now but because Tinubu has shown them that it is a "short-cut" to Political Position and with it comes free money!.
Look around the SW and tell me who are your Councillors, your LGA Chairmen and other Govt appointees and you would understand my point.
This is a major reason why the SW has been devoid of any concrete progress, especially infra-structurally (go and look at your street roads, water, drainage, etc in still in doubt) aisde from that which it witnessed during the tenure of Gov. Raji Fashola.
Should this trend continue and would it not get worse, with a Tinubu Presidency that takes its root from the North?

This is where it gets tragically, very dangerous for Southerners.
A Tinubu Presidency will be the worst Nightmare the Yorubas can ever imagine (dont even mention the Igbos; dem nor like him, him nor like dem - Ras Kimono RIP). And with what is already happening with RUGA and Fulani onslaught on Southerners, to have a 'Yoruba' President that is "beholden to the Northerners", will really lead to a 'psychological breakdown of the Southerners' and the Yoruba race in particular, because he is Yoruba, using-up the the "Quota of the SW" and will be acting against the core interest of Southerners and the SW in particular.

That will really be tragic for Yorubas and Southerners. Tha damage will last for half a century.
V.P Osinbajo or former Governor Raji Fashola will make a far better and more reliable candidate from the SW, than Tinubu.
