Alhaji Bola Ahmed Tinubu the acclaimed Asiwaju of Yoruba Land has come under stringent attack by members of the Atiku PovertyCure Initiative Coalition who categorically told him to stop saying Nigerians would not go back to 'Egypt", asking which "Egypt", is he referring to? The group also advised Asiwaju to desist from calling PDP looters pointing out that his ruling All Progressive Congress party was more corrupt than any other in the history of Nigeria, adding that they should forget about 2019 for Buhari. The group speaking through its National Coordinator Chief Jones Ogwumike charged Alhaji Tinubu to stop calling the President "Mr. Integrity", because Nigerians are now wiser and would not "chop" hunger, poverty and starvation before they succumb to premature death.

He said the Atiku PovertyCure Group was creating awareness on the "atikulated" programmes of their leader so that Nigerians would be on guard.
