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

We are not newcomers to this.

Always we maintain objectivity.

We do not support Tinubu for THS ONE
but he has done well compared to his peers from EVERYWHERE
it is hateful to pretend
but the message is

" You don try, better rest".
I do not support him but insist I do not hate him and would confront those "brown teeth" crew , with bad belly. He has far exceeeded any of theirs in legacy , reach and relevance.
Indeed I say his for reason of Yoruba self interest. He is not the best person to drive our interests with unease about his longevity.
He can be relevant in the background.I have no problem with that. He won't live forever and if we are a strategic people we must anticipate that who are the next set of leaders to match Tambuwwal and Kwankwaso and Wike. It is better that is resolved in front of him

If I am Tinubu, I will not utter a single word but rather do anything I want to do to help in the background.

This is Nigeria and as a politician, you have to deal with the matter with sense and not just be like every other person that can speak anytime they want.

Have you seen Atiku, Kwakwanso, El-Rufai, Ganduje, and etc talk about it?

That tells you every big players are watching their words so I don’t see any reason why you guys want Tinubu to talk dandan on every matter.

If he talks tho what does it change? If Tinubu say Fulani herdsmen should leave our forest, what will happen?

Will Buhari suddenly summon the military on Tinubu’s order or will the SW governors just follow his command and evict the herdsmen?

In the West, we should put on our thinking cap and look for lasting solutions to issues instead of wasting time with showing power on the internet and wasting all the cards you have.

Again I ask, if Tinubu talk what will change?
Nice one, very intelligent response.

We know your ilk. You're are what we call OMO ALE...we do not breed vagabonds in Yorubaland.

Asiwaju is our leader. Show us your own leader in Yorubaland if you're not a hypocrite.

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

If you have different political view , Tinubu shouldn't be your target when criticizing roles played by the president , other states governors or other tribes , mind you, he didn't hold any political post after 8 yrs governor,
