Yoruba's dont trust Fulani's and won't vote for Buhari-Ganiyu Adams

The factional leader of Yoruba cultural group,Oodua Peoples Congress OPC,Ganiyu Adams has told the presidential candidate of the All People's Congress APC,Muhamadu Buhari that the he should not expect a bulk vote from the Yorubas.He gave his reasons by saying that the Yorubas are yet to get over the reservations they have for the Fulanis because they cannot be trusted.


Adams told Nigeria Today that he does not agree with projections made by some pundits that Buhari will make a clean sweep of South-west by virtue of the dominance of his party in the geo-political zone, saying, “South-west is a place that you cannot use the media to deceive. We are highly exposed and highly educated.”

His words, “For you to say we should go one way, it is impossible. I don’t think that the South-west will vote for Buhari en mass. Don’t forget the pain caused by the June 12 annulment, it is still fresh in the mind of our people many died in the cause of June 12 struggle, many lost a lot of properties. I don’t think our people will trust a Hausa/Fulani man from the north this time around.”

Adams’ stance aligns with that of the leader of another faction of OPC and founder of the Unity Party of Nigeria (UPN), Frederick Faseun, who has already thrown his weight behind Jonathan, with his party adopting the President as its candidate.
