We Want You To Sweat Very Well, Until I Become President’ – Tinubu To Igbos

Meanwhile, Tinubu has subtly warned the Igbos that they would continue to be marginalized until he gets their support.

The former governor of Lagos State acknowledged that the Igbos are working hard but urged them to work harder because nobody will give them credit until they deliver victory.

According to Tinubu, the Igbos will get nothing but a slight clap or half-soaked slice of bread until he becomes the president of Nigeria.

However, Tinubu’s statement has generated several reactions online, with many Igbos slamming the APC flagbearer for his comments, while other Nigerians agree with him.
