He also dismissed media reports that Agbekoya have endorsed Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.

Aare Aremu said: “The National Executive Council of Agbekoya Farmers Society have endorsed President Muhammadu Buhari for the 2019 Presidential election,

“There is no any better candidate than President Muhammadu Buhari because of his achievement. Since he came on board in 2015, the agricultural development nationwide is enough for him to have our support in the coming election. Any information against this is untrue and void and should be disregarded.

The impact of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Yoruba nation cannot be derailed, and nothing can change the decision of Agbekoya Farmers Society on President Muhammadu Buhari.

The forthcoming election will be strictly monitored from the polling booth to INEC office. We are also warning that any society or group of people that have intention to manipulate the results should desist from the act because anybody caught would be severely dealt with.”
