Yes, the humiliation was too much and Nigerians treated GEJ and his family poorly. But the country appears to be towing the same path now, everyone has something terrible to say about Tinubu. Do we look back in 10 years and say they are motivated by tribal discrimination only?
Reducing GEJ’s loss to just tribalism is low-key dishonest sha. If anything it was classism; Patience’s grammar, GEJ’s background (I can remember Tinubu saying “Won ni awon o ni bata” during the election campaigns). There's also the general perception that GEJ was weak.
