On June 3, 2022, then presidential aspirant, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, set the social media on fire with a prophetic declaration of “Emilokan” (It’s my turn). He did that in Abeokuta, Ogun State.
Tinubu, as the story was told then, was being frustrated by an alleged “Aso Rock cabal” in his quest to succeed former President Muhammadu Buhari. The cabal was not disposed to a President Tinubu at Aso Rock, it was alleged. To stop him, many obstacles were being erected on his pathway. And they were quite formidable.
At a meeting with APC delegates, while campaigning to secure the candidacy of the party, Tinubu apparently responded to his traducers. He said he was instrumental to the installation of President Buhari after he had failed thrice in his bid for the Aso Rock Villa. “It is my time. I’m educated. I’m experienced. I have been serving people for a long time. Bring me the presidency, it is my turn,” Tinubu had said.
