Foremost leaders of the pan Yoruba socio-cultural group, Afenifere, Pa. Ayo Adebanjo and Sen. Femi Okunronmu on Saturday gave some fillip to the Labour Party, LP, presidential campaign rally in Ogun State, with their endorsements and attendance.

The Yoruba leaders were at the campaign rally to receive the presidential candidate, Peter Obi; his running mate, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed; the National Chairman of LP, Julius Abure; and other party leaders.

Speaking at the rally, Pa. Adebanjo described the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, as a failure, who would not win the presidential election.

The Afenifere leader told Tinubu to withdraw his candidature and join Peter Obi, saying the northerners he relies on would disappoint him.

“We are behind Obi. Leaders of the progressive movement are behind Peter Obi.

“Those fraudsters parading themselves as Yoruba leaders do not love the country. Yorubas do not take things that belong to other tribes. A Yoruba has been President before. A Yoruba should not be now.

“Atiku (Abubakar) is taking you for a fool, a Fulani man is about leaving. A Fulani man can’t succeed him.

“Please tell Tinubu that Hausas will not vote for him, tell him to come back and support Obi and Datti because they will defeat him and when they defeat him, he won’t be able to come back home,” Adebanjo admonished.
