Yoruba Elders Urge President Tinubu to Publicly Apologise to Peter Obi

Yoruba community leaders have called for a historic gesture of reconciliation between President Bola Tinubu and opposition figure Peter Obi. They believe such an act could heal ethnic divides and restore trust. Advocates argue that the South-East region felt overlooked in the 2023 power rotation. Many in the region expected their turn at the presidency and were disappointed when it went otherwise. The elders suggest that President Tinubu should kneel and apologise on national television as a symbol of humility and unity. Supporters contend this would send a powerful message that national interest trumps partisan rivalry. Political observers say the debate goes beyond elections. It highlights a wider demand for mutual respect, inclusion and dialogue among Nigeria’s diverse ethnic groups. Whether Nigerians agree or not, the conversation underscores a shared desire for a truly united nation.
