Former Lagos State governor, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has been described as a modern reincarnation of the esteemed Yoruba leader and politician, Chief Obafemi Awolowo.

The Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba (Dr.) Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi,  a paramount traditional ruler in Osun State, disclosed this at the weekend when he received Vice President Yemi Osinbajo who was in Iwo in continuation of his ongoing campaign for re-election.

Osinbajo, remarkably is married to Awolowo’s grand-daughter, Dolapo.

Receiving Osinbajo in his palace, the Oluwo said that Tinubu “has built both human and political structure to the survival of Nigeria in general and Yoruba race in particular.”

Oluwo made the declaration while receiving Nigeria Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo in his palace, weekend as part of the consultation visits ahead of Saturday’s general elections.

Tinubu: Oluwo compares him to Awolowo

Noting that no one in Yoruba history had built men like Tinubu, he said:

“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.”
