The Yoruba Council of Elders, YCE, has reacted and congratulated Tinubu on his victory in the APC primaries.
Dr. Kunle Olajide described Tinubu's emergence as a positive development. According to Vanguard, Olajide showed his excitement over the fact that a Yoruba man has emerged as the flag bearer of the All Progressive Congress.
I’m exceptionally very happy because this Yoruba man is my bosom friend and someone I knew right from childhood."
"It is a thing of joy for the Yorubas. I plead with Nigerians to rally support for him and ensure he makes the office of the President of this nation. I honestly hope and want him to emerge as the President of the country."
The Yoruba nation is part of this country. We have been responsible for keeping this country's unity and harmony. Although there have been attempts previously to divide the country through some activities, we have been very consistent.
