BREAKING: “Are You Igbo or Yoruba?” – Surulere Aspirant Aremu Olalekan Abdulateef Exposed for Dressing in Igbo Attire, Posting Campaign Posters in Igbo Language

The people of Surulere Constituency II are angry. And they have every right to be.

Aremu Olalekan Abdulateef, a man seeking to represent them in the federal House of Representatives, has been caught on camera wearing full Igbo traditional attire. His campaign posters are written in the Igbo language. He is pandering to non-Yoruba voters while expecting Yoruba people to queue behind him on election day.

Let this be clear: Surulere is Yoruba land. The constituency is Yoruba. The votes that will decide this election are predominantly Yoruba.

So why is Aremu Abdulateef dressing like an Igbo chief? Why is he campaigning in Igbo language? Who is he planning to represent in Abuja – the Yoruba people of Surulere or an Igbo bloc that has no ancestral claim to the land?

This is a slap on the face of every Yoruba voter in the constituency.

We have seen this game before. Aspirants who beg for our votes but owe their loyalty to outsiders. Aspirants who will sell our interests the moment they get to office.

Aremu Abdulateef must answer these questions now. Not tomorrow. Not after the election.

If you cannot campaign as a Yoruba man in Yoruba land, you do not deserve to lead Yoruba people.
