A video showing some residents of Oyo State chanting in support of the All Progressives Congress after receiving sachets of Semovita at an outreach event has sparked reactions online.

The video, shared on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday, showed residents holding 1kg sachets of semovita while declaring support for APC 2027.

In the video, some of the residents were heard chanting, “Jagaban 2027.”

The clip has since generated reactions on X, with users criticising the development and expressing concerns over poverty and political influence.

A user identified on X as #SemiNigerian wrote, “They just sold themselves for less than 4,000 naira. My God.”

Another user, #Omo_Barogun, said, “You no fit understand this country. May God heal us. Weaponizing poverty is the only method our politicians have at their disposal.”

Reacting to the video, #Byrdbenson911 wrote, “Blame it on poverty. And the person giving that insult knows about it. And he will continue to keep them there in their poverty.”

When did Tinubu’s name change to BSA?

Meanwhile, Enugu people sold their own votes for Okpa and Jollof in Enugu even before Tinubu became President.

We also saw some a few days ago celebrate malt can drinks.

Only a fool will fight for the masses. As country dey spoil make he dey spoil dey go everybody go later get sense las las.

That's not even funny.

They stole billions and settle you with semovita N1000

Only in South West

The atenuje is shameful

The leaders have successfully weaponized poverty that people get excited for things as little as this

...where are the tilumbu supporters...maybe they are still gnashing the odourless semovita..

I pointed that out as well. Wrong title, but perhaps the mod has an agenda, since the mod added the pictures hours after the post was created. That means the mod watched the video and still left the wrong label on the title just to draw traffic.

Haha!
No wonder I felt no form of emotions for the one that was decapita***

These fellow masses are our biggest problem

It's well semovita and you forget ya children in the bush

Until you have tasted real poverty, you wont understand.
Semo that wont even last up to 2 days.

God abeg o.

what system
Democracy?
Human psychology?
Which other system is there?

Una suffer go long well well

Yarimo is very pleased with this development 😀

Some of you dont understand Oyo Stare politics expecially ibadan. You would not know who they will vote for until when results comes out. They will collect your money or other things and still not vote for you
