Taiwo NY | 10/21/2014 11:12:04 PM Like i said before right here on NFC. Nigerians especially Yoruba tribes are not s****d or dumb. All of a sudden, you are now Olusola right?.I have seen most of your (English)movies and you have never acknowledge that you are a Yoruba man. You are trying to use Yorubas to further your rogue political ambition. You are already committing fraud before even getting elected. Imagine what would happen if you get elected?.You have shown your true color and i am offended as a yoruba man(proud of it) by this fraud you are trying to pull. Believe me, Lagosian will see true your deception and give you the he ho at the election time. I am not against you running for any political office, just be straight with the people you might be representing not to lie your way through. I can see that you will be like every Nigerian politician who is greedy and looking for easy pay day from your constituency. Have a little decency and bow out gracefully before you are kicked out(defeated).I hope they take all the money you saved from your nollys**twood days. Liar, lair pants on fire. As far as i am concern, you name is Desmond Elliot or i***t or show me your birth certificate. Reply this thread

OBADEHINDE | 10/21/2014 11:57:41 PM He probably did not take a closer look at his campaign picture and how the cap looks on his head that his deceptive Yoruba claims are yet unfolding. Just for political expediency you suddenly became a Yoruba in a broad daylight. Nobody begrudges you becoming a politician but let your conscience not decieve you Yorubas are f**ls not to recognise someone trying to claim who he is not. I wish you goodluck though but Yorubas are too matured for your kind self conceited games. Reply this thread
