A mini-truck driver from Ado-Ekiti, Adeleye Adeniyi, says he borrowed 3.5 million naira to back the re-election bids of President Bola Tinubu, Senate Leader Opeyemi Bamidele and Ekiti State House of Assembly member Steve Fatoba. He made the disclosure in an interview with journalists that has been circulating since Friday. Adeniyi goes by the nickname Online Loan Man for BAO, a tag that helped his remarks travel quickly online. The size of the loan is the detail that has caught most attention, given the driver's ordinary line of work. Nothing in the circulating remarks spelled out the terms of the borrowing or how he plans to repay it. His story points to the financial weight that grassroots supporters sometimes take on during campaign season in Nigeria. No response from any of the three politicians named had been heard at the time of writing.
