According to Sahara reporters, Activist and former presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, recently made pointed remarks about the political dynamics within the Yoruba community, suggesting a shift in perceptions regarding Bola Tinubu's influence and representation. Sowore remarked that many Yoruba people who once believed Tinubu represented their interests have come to realize otherwise, particularly in light of recent events.
