Tinubu Went To Oyo State And Addressed Seyi Makinde As “His Excellency” – But Went To Ogun State & Addressed Dapo Abiodun As “Eleyi”(This One) – WHY!!?

The All Progressives Congress presidential aspirant, Bola Tinubu has sparked reactions amongst Nigerians and on social media after addressing the Oyo state Governor as “His Excellency” while addressing the Ogun State governor as “Eleyi” meaning “This One”.
This is coming after yesterday’s meeting when Tinubu met the Ogun State delegates ahead of APC’s primary election.

Speaking at a meeting with delegates of the APC in Abeokuta, Tinubu said without his support, Abiodun would not have become governor.

Tinubu said,

“Eleyi(This one)(referring to Abiodun) that is sitting down here, could he have become governor without me? We were all in the stadium where they tore all the posters. Even the candidacy of the party, they didn’t want to give it to him,” the APC chieftain said in Yoruba.

Before he met with the Ogun State delegates, Tinubu had already visited the Oyo state delegates where he paid homage to Oyo State, Governor Seyi Makinde despite not being in his party and he addressed him as “His Excellency”.
