Sunday Igboho and others agitating wrongly - Tinubu

Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has said that the Yoruba activist, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, IPOB and others agitating for the break-up of Nigeria are doing so wrongly.

The former governor of Lagos state stressed the need for unity among the tribes, adding that it is important the Yoruba and Fulani live together.

Speaking at the 12th colloquium to mark his 69th birthday in Kano, Bola Tinubu revealed that he chose Kano for the colloquium to demonstrate to Nigerians at this critical period that they must continue to remain united.

He noted that it wouldn't have been possible to visit Kano without a visa if Nigeria had broken into smaller countries.

“Why are we in Kano? It is to demonstrate to Nigerians at this critical time. It is because there is a Fulani man, a herder man who gave his daughter to a farmer, Yoruba man. And that Fulani, that Yoruba, and some people are agitating wrongly."

Tinubu applauded Ganduje and the Governor for proving to Nigeria that they are one by holding the colloquim in Kano state without problems.
