This has always been where Bola Tinubu wanted to keep the great sage Papa Obafemi Awolowo; disrespected and forgotten. He wants to be the only cock that crows in Yorubaland. But there's no basis for comparison of a mere cockerel with a bald-headed eagle. pic.twitter.com/MdUuPM96JU

But how does this even help APC? This vulgar display on someone of such historical significance as Chief Obafemi Awolowo will even turn people against the party. What is this? No Northerner will do this to a statue of Ahmadu Bello! Why are we like this?#TableShaker pic.twitter.com/7z6uIAojui

You can literally see the disgust on Obafemi Awolowo's face with the flag of a failed party pinned on his statue's head and #Portable aka zazu almost rubbing his bumbum on his nose.

No respect or regard even for heroes passed.

Thank God Baba Awolowo is can see this directly, he doesn't have to be told what Tinubu has turned the youths and Yoruba race into.

A photo that eerily describes exactly what Tinubu has done in the Southwest.

I think the upheavals we have now are a blessing in disguise.

We now have the best chance to make Nigeria what Awolowo and others felt it should be.
