Why is Peter Obi Winning Half of Yoruba States? by ScamHunter: 2:01pm On Dec 24, 2022
Tinubu's expected loss in Lagos is not surprising because Lagos has many tribes who are not Yoruba resident there. But as polls have shown, Tinubu will likely lose one or two core Yoruba states. Why is it so considering that Mr Tinubu claims to be the leader of Yoruba people after Awolowo?

We even saw how Afenifere rejected him and endorsed Peter Obi, an indication that most sensible Yoruba people do not recognize Tinubu as a Yoruba leader. Some like the former governor of Osun state, Rauf Aregbesola even openly declared that Tinubu doesn't mean well for Yoruba people and that God should pull him down. Is Tinubu's impending defeat at the poll the answer to Aregbesola's prayer?

What is even more shocking is that even Moshood Abiola who never claimed to be a disciple of Awololo had more acceptance than Mr Tinubu. Our correspondents tried to find out why Tinubu's home base rejection is growing.

The reason given by most respondents is that Tinubu is perceived to be extremely corrupt and has been living large from proceeds of corruption. Others like the Afenifere never recognized him as part of the progressives while Tinubu himself inadvertently alienated many Yoruba Christians with his insensitive Muslim-Muslim tickets.

The outcome of Mr Tinubu's dwindling fortune is that his opponents from PDD, Atiku Abubakar and from Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi are making massive inroad with Yoruba voters. It is expected that Peter Obi will win Oyo, Osun and Lagos states, precincts that were hitherto Tinubu's domains.

Well said.

Pandora anini has indeed won 99% of SW, 98% of entire North.

Ipob pigs better go and get their biafuro flags because Tinubu is not Buhari that has been pampering them.

Useless criminals and armed robbers.
