Yoruba Party To Field Candidates In UK Election by Pinicop: 8:04am On Jun 23
The Yoruba Party in the United Kingdom (YPUK) says it will field candidates in the forthcoming general election.

In a campaign pamphlet seen by TheCable, YPUK, a new party which was founded by Olusola Oni on February 13, 2024, is set to participate in the election.

The new party said it aims at “empowering the Yoruba voice in British politics”.

The party’s campaign manifestos include promises on climate change, reduction of taxes, quality national health service, immigration and “assisting Yoruba domiciled in the United Kingdom to achieve full potentials”.

"Labour don’t know what to do. Tory don’t know what to do. We know what to do. Vote for the Yoruba Party,” a part of the pamphlet reads.

“The prime minister has called parliamentary elections for 4 July 2024. The Yoruba Party in the UK shall be fielding candidates for these elections. The Yoruba Party provides a political voice for the UK Yoruba community.”

The new party has also been listed on the UK electoral commission’s website.

The party is led by Olusola Oni, who is also the treasurer, while Oluwole Oni is the nominating and campaign officer.

In May, Rishi Sunak, the United Kingdom prime minister, announced that he would dissolve the parliament on May 30 and call a general election on July 4.

A joke. 1. Is the Yoruba Nation a part of the English State?
2. Is there a significant population of people who identify as Yoruba Nationalists with common problems in the UK?
3. The participantion of Yoruba Nation as a subgroup in such political process, does not directly infringe or violate sections of Nigeria constitution.

All No!

That's a provocative party name.

Imagine someone setting up a 'Igbo Party' with headquarters in Lagos.

Our people will be up in arms.

They're just wasting their time. Would they themselves vote for a set of Indians that float a Hindi party or Pakistanis that float a Kurdish party? Bunch of clowns

Yet they were the same set of people asking others to leave Lagos because they refused to vote their demigod and drug lord in 2023.
