The Oluwo of Iwoland, HIM Oba (Dr.) Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has described the political status of former Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (BAT) as unprecedented in the history of Yoruba race.
Declaring that Tinubu is the replicate of the late sage Obafemi Awolowo, the traditional ruler said that the former Governor has built both human and political structure to the survival of Nigeria in general and Yoruba race in particular.
The monarch described Asiwaju as the current nationwide symbol of the cradle of natural crowns (Yoruba).
Oluwo made these declarations while receiving Nigeria Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo in his palace on Friday as part of the consultation visits ahead of next week’s general election.
The monarch urged Yoruba communities to replicate and not spiting their pride as done to the Late Obafemi Awolowo.
Oba Akanbi said Tinubu is a pride whose every existing tribes are envy to be their credit, challenged sons and daughters of Yoruba race to support his political association to navigate the propelled aspirations and greatness of the race.
Oluwo stated that the political status of Tinubu is unprecedented in Yoruba’s history, noting no one in Yoruba history has made and built human like Tinubu.
According to Oluwo ” Tinubu is a nation on his own. He has what it takes to survive but continuously in politics because of the country’s interest and Yoruba nation. As a patriot, nothing is as valuable to encourage him than supporting his political association to catapult the country to the envisaged status”
“Tinubu has made many things out of nothing. He built human across boards. Human development is his primary asset. Vice President, Ministers, Governors, CEO of Agencies, Doctors, Lawyers, Business Magnates, Monarchs etc are products of Tinubu to the glory of God today. You don’t become leaders by amassing wealth, best leader builds more and better leaders. There is light on every darkness he touches,” he said.
