Despite Naira crunch, a massive crowd stormed the mega rally of the All Progressives Congress’ (APC) presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
Watch video of the crowd at the rally:
The historic Mapo Hall was overfilled with crowd spreading to adjourning streets drum support for the presidential aspiration of Tinubu.
As early as in the morning, all roads led to the rally’s venue. The usual Naira crisis protest in Ibadan ceased as Tinubu came to town.
The rally was postponed last week following the protest over naira crisis in Ibadan, as youths blocked Iwo Road and other areas of the state.
Before the rally, the APC’s presidential candidate visited Governor Seyi Makinde in his office to seek his support.
Makinde is one of the aggrieved G-5 Governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) against the presidential aspiration of Atiku Abubakar.
