Recall that Tinubu, at the grand rally for the re-election of APC candidate, Adegboyega Oyetola, on Tuesday, had said: “They said some are in Labour, they will remain laborers till death.”

He also called on the people of Osun to support the party’s candidate in the governorship poll to give the state better leadership.
