Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III, the Alaafin of Oyo, has declared his support for Bola Tinubu, the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, in his bid for the presidency (APC).
During Tinubu’s visit to Adeyemi III’s palace in Oyo Town on Sunday, Adeyemi III made the vow.
After declaring his presidential candidacy, Tinubu, a former Governor of Lagos State, went on a consultation visit to traditional rulers in the South-West.
Tinubu’s aspiration was prayed for by the traditional ruler, who expressed confidence that the Yoruba ancestors will help him become the country’s president in 2023.
“If I check my list now, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the first presidential aspirant to visit me.
“All you the chiefs and traditional rulers, you have heard what our visitor said.
“He said our prayers are needed.
All the ancestors in Yorubaland, get up and assist your son,” the Alaafin said.
Earlier, Tinubu said at the Palace that his visit to the traditional ruler was to seek his blessing, cooperation, and prayers on his ambition.
