Tinubu visits Awujale, says I invoked spirit of freedom in Ogun

President Bola Tinubu says he invoked the spirit of freedom during his campaign outing in Ogun State.
He said this at the private residence of Oba Sikiru Adetona, Awujale of Ijebuland, on Thursday.
While thanking his host during the visit, Tinubu said, “It is a homecoming and I owe so much to all of you and there is so much to thank you for.

“Because of the way you have taken me and the way you’ve responded to me, all I can say is thank you.
“To many of you, thank you for being there for me and being there for the country.

“You demonstrated so much loyalty, so much commitment and voted at a very crucial time.

“Your monies were confiscated. The cash swap didn’t work. It was terrible then. I realised that and I came to Ogun State to invoke the spirit of freedom for which we are noted for.

“I invoked that spirit twice. The spirit of Baba (referring to Awujale). The spirit of Baba – Emi l’okan. The spirit for being blunt and that is him.

“And the second spirit is that of money (Naira scarcity), even if there is no money. And that, ever since, has been the spirit that is driving me to serve.”

During his campaign in Abeokuta, Tinubu had said fuel scarcity and naira redesign were plans to scuttle the 2023 general elections and make him lose.

But he asked his supporters to stay resolute.
