The gubernatorial candidate of the ADC party in Oyo State, Taofeek Adegoke, has sparked controversy after a video surfaced showing him distributing cooked corn to his supporters by the roadside, as reported by PUNCH newspaper.
In the video, Adegoke was seen personally handing out corn to his supporters, while they chanted "Mr. Governor" and sang campaign songs in his support. Some of the supporters insisted on receiving the corn directly from his hand, stating that it was a blessing.
The video generated mixed reactions on social media, with some praising Adegoke for demonstrating humility and closeness to the people. However, others remarked that such a move is an old campaign tactic used by politicians to win over voters.
