2023:Tinubu Is Contesting To Win A Trophy For Yoruba: Atiku Mocks Tinubu by pinkPUSSY(op):
Despite that Afenifere, led by Pa Ayo Adebanjo, had publicly endorsed the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, a former leader of the organization, Pa Reuben Fasoranti, on Sunday endorsed Tinubu when the politician visited him in his home in Akure, Ondo State.

The Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) Atiku/Okowa Campaign Organization has faulted the endorsement of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu by a former leader of Afenifere, a pan-Yoruba socio-cultural organisation.

Despite that Afenifere, led by Pa Ayo Adebanjo, had publicly endorsed the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, a former leader of the organization, Pa Reuben Fasoranti, on Sunday endorsed Tinubu when the politician visited him in his home in Akure, Ondo State.




The meeting was attended by several Afenifere members and South West leaders but some members of the group, including Adebanjo, and the Secretary-General, Chief Sola Ebiseeni, were absent.




Reacting to the group’s endorsement of Tinubu, the presidential spokesman of Atiku/Okowa Campaign Organisation, Daniel Bwala, in a statement said the absence of Adebanjo and others was an indication that the endorsement was faulty.



Bwala faulted Tinubu for saying he would bring the “trophy home,” describing the statement as divisive.

He said the statement shows Tinubu is a “tribal evangelist” championing an ethnic agenda.

Bwala described Tinubu’s visit to Fasoranti as the “crawling of a rat at night to steal meat from the pot”.

He said it was “strange because it was not an organized setting of the usual meeting of the highly respected Afenifere; needless to say the leader of the group Pa Adebanjo and the secretary were obviously absent when he went to in a Gestapo manner”.



He continued, “First off, the Afenifere we know has through their leader made known their position as to who they support and it was certainly not Tinubu. Secondly, if it were a meeting seeking to know the right person to support or endorse amongst the candidates it ought to have at least invited the leading candidates to hear their take on what plans they have for the country that caters to the interests of Afenifere.



“So to Tinubu, the race to become the president of Nigeria is a trophy to be won and taken to his ethnic enclave. He was not only wrong in his tribal insinuation that not a single Yoruba opposed the ticket, but he also lied because lots of Yorubas took strong objections to the same faith ticket and to his divisive and religious politics.



“To say that his ticket is supported by all Yorubas is, to say the least disingenuous, false, and condemnable.



“Tinubu has made no secret about his tribal championship and utter disregard for other ethnic people in southern Nigeria. This to say the least is sad and terribly troubling and Nigerians should rise and condemn this rhetoric at the polls.”

Re: 2023:Tinubu Is Contesting To Win A Trophy For Yoruba: Atiku Mocks Tinubu by Moh247:
cool


Atiku go and rest.... Or also bring his manifesto and explain in details why Yoruba should vote for him

Atiku and Obi paid the wrong Afenifebi guy Pa Adebanjo.

Afenifere is not a one man organisation with Pa Adebanjo dictating to all , he is barely the Acting head pending the Afenifere General Assembly

At the convergence over the weekend were

Pa Fasoranti the current head of Afenifere,

All SouthWest Governors including PDP Deputy Governor of Oyo state headed by HE Arakunrin Rotimi Akeredolu SAN

Yoruba Council of Elders headed by General Alini Akinrinade

This Ethnic politics Tinubu and some of you his supporters are playing is destroying Tinubu's chances..

Remember Tinubu is begging/hoping on Atiku's nothern region to deliver/help him..
If anybody should play an ethnic card Tinubu shouldn't engage in such because he would be at the receiving end since he doesn't have a regional base unlike other two candidates who have a regional support..
Tinubu is just like a bat he's flying around looking for where to perch..

*Tinubu lunched his Manifesto in Abuja Federal Capital Territory and presented it to President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR ( it wasn't ethnic)

*Tinubu travelled to Kano State and or a copy of his manifesto to Northern Business men association, Northern Kannywood actors and actresses, Northern Islamic sect (it was not ethnic politics)


*Tinubu went to Akure the home of leader of Yoruba Social Cultural Group Afenifere, invited all Yoruba leaders to present his manifesto... Suddenly it ethnicity

And Peter Obi is contesting to win a trophy for Igbo, while only Atiku is the unifier.

Quote me and spew trash to your peril.

Vote ATIKU Vote for positive change not kind of negative change we are experience under APC. A Bag of Rice 45000naira from 8000naira Dollar is nothing to write about APC must go Vote PDP.

All I know is Peter Obi is my candidate while others are just whiling away their times and fretting away their stored loots.

Did you read the content of the thread before commenting ?
What does Tinubu mean by "I will bring the trophy home" ?

Some of you don't really knw the implication of some of your utrances ..

Well I don't blame Tinubu, He's mistaking Nigeria for South west region hence his archaic modus of speech

Another Buhari in the making.

“One thing that is certain, no Yoruba men and women opposed this ticket. They support this ticket. I want to tell you that I will bring the trophy home. It is not just a Yoruba thing. It is a Nigeria project."

You are better to get back to field of campaign than to relent on attacking your opponent. Have you forgotten what Atiku too said about his Ahusas presidency campaign in the north? Three of you are fighting for a position but only one person will get it others will go back home but your money and energy exsorsted on electionneering will not be refund.
