Speaking in the Yoruba language in a viral video, the activist thanked President Tinubu for removing him and the wanted list and the Yoruba Obas in the southwest, saying that their intervention was helpful during his trial. He recalled that he had once abused many of the traditional rulers and Tinubu, but they all stood by him.
