“Only A Yoruba Man Can Make Yoruba Grow”, YWC Endorses Tinubu

The Yoruba World Congress has endorsed the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, for the 2023 election.

The group, in endorsing the former governor of Lagos, said that his precedents, qualities, ideals, and dreams for the betterment of Nigeria put him far ahead of other contenders for the county’s exalted seat.

YWC Representative in Ekiti State, Adewole Oluwasegun, who said the body decided given what Tinubu represented and his manifesto, said the APC candidate would bring about a better and more developed Nigeria to the delight of Nigerian citizens, adding that the Yoruba tribe would immensely benefit from it.

Oluwasegun, who spoke in Ado Ekiti on Saturday during the formal endorsement of Tinubu by the YWC in Ekiti State and the official presentation by the YWC of the Memorandum of Association to the APC, said, “Look at what Tinubu did in Lagos when he was governor—the roadmap, the achievements, and the trajectory. The way he governed Lagos showed that Nigeria will not be difficult for him to handle.”

The YWC chieftain called on Yoruba people in the country and the diasporas to unite in support of Tinubu, under whose presidency, according to him, the goal of development of the Southwest geopolitical zone would be achieved, saying, “We are calling on Yoruba people to join this cause because we now have one Yoruba man and it is only Yoruba that can make Yoruba grow.”

Oluwasegun said, “What we are doing is political because we believe in what Asiwaju is presenting to the public, in what he represents, and in what he has shown in his manifesto. We believe that with Asiwaju Tinubu, the betterment of Nigeria is guaranteed.”
