Osoba Reflects On How Awolowo, MKO Abiola Were Blocked From Becoming PresidentFormer Ogun State Governor, Chief Olusegun Osoba, has stated that the late Obafemi Awolowo and MKO Abiola were never given the opportunity to become Nigeria’s president. Osoba highlighted that despite significant losses in the quest for a Yoruba presidency, President Bola Tinubu managed to succeed.

Speaking at the All Progressives Congress (APC) South West Zone Assembly meeting held at Eko Hotels and Suites, Lagos, Osoba reflected on the challenges faced in previous efforts to secure the presidency for prominent Yoruba leaders.

He said, “Many of us here worked tirelessly to support the late Chief Obafemi Awolowo’s bid for the presidency, but he wasn’t allowed to achieve it. Similarly, we stood behind the late MKO Abiola’s presidential ambition, but we lost him, and with him, the chance for change.

“They killed many of our people because of our mission to improve this country. But we thank God that some of us are still alive to witness Bola Tinubu’s success.
