A group championing the presidential ambition of former Lagos State Governor, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Olayinka Toluwanimi Group has commenced mobilisation across the six states of the South West for the election of Tinubu as Nigeria’s next president.
The group has also held prayers for Tinubu in some states including Ondo, Oyo and Osun, with Christian and Islamic clerics praying for him.
