If you’ve followed Nigerian politics closely over the last few election cycles, the name Folusho Ojo Sylvanus, popularly known as Fosh, should ring a bell.
He’s not just a political enthusiast, he’s a strategist, a mobilizer, and most importantly, a man who understands the pulse of the people at the grassroots.
And now, with the unveiling of the Tinubu Grassroot Network (TGN), it’s clear that Fosh is up to something again.
Let’s not forget the role he played in 2023 elections. Fosh almost single-handedly put Professor Yemi Osinbajo’s presidential ambition on the political map.
Through the Osinbajo Grassroots Organisation (OGO), he generated momentum, secured high-profile endorsements like that of former Military President, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida, and built a campaign architecture from the scratch.
He brought structure, strategy, and street credibility; the kind that can’t be bought or borrowed.
Now, he’s back. This time, his target is not a new face, but a sitting President – Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
His recent Facebook post, which featured the logo of the new group with a simple caption: “Here we go” may have appeared minimalist to the casual observer. But for those who understand political undertones, it was the unmistakable opening line of another movement in the making for the 2027 election circle.
Interestingly, this move coincided with former VP Yemi Osinbajo’s surprise presence at the National Economic Council meeting held at the Presidential Villa.
Could that reappearance have triggered Fosh’s strategic pivot? It’s a question political analysts are beginning to ask.
And then came the flood of reactions from netizens: loud, clear, and overwhelmingly enthusiastic. Hereunder is a reflection of how Fosh’s base and beyond responded to the development:
Temitope Ebenezer Oladunjoye: “Contact me ooo and carry me along.”
Omoniyi Medinat Adepoju: “Here we go 700.”
Ahmad Abdullahi: “Great.”
Adesanya Temmy Vocal: “We are in…”
Olumide Ogunleye: “Gbenga GuzzLe Ogundare here we go again.”
Prosper Oritseweyinmi Daudu: “You get capacity normally.”
Abubakar Kayarda: “Here we go.”
Ajayi Johnson Olusola Johnsure II: “Movement.”
Pamela Takka Ibrahim: “Boss….”
Saminu Maigoro: “Our movement. I don choose my own.”
Ikona Kutanson Oblaist: “I’m in with you again and again Comrade.”
Gaji A Goroma Yobe: “Yes! yes!! yes!!!”
Ibironke Olanrewaju: “All the way with you. I just sent you a DM.”
Idowu Olatunbosun Patrick: “TGN…..”
Harun Jidda Umar: “Here we go again, keep it up!”
Abdul Kareem: “TGN.”
Golepji David Wambutda: “Fantastic.”
Omoyeni Olakunle: “Work don start.”
Nehemiah Ayankaa: “You lead…We follow.”
Even more surprising was the endorsement or better put, interest shown by Aladuke Folashade Oyekanmi (AFO), a known critic of President Tinubu administration.
Her post promoting TGN has raised eyebrows and signalled that whatever Fosh is cooking, it has enough aroma to attract even the skeptics.
What’s fascinating about TGN is that it isn’t just a replica of OGO; it’s an evolved version. It draws from the same grassroots philosophy but widens its scope with a sharper focus: President Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.
It’s bold. It’s early. But that’s classic Fosh; he doesn’t wait for waves; he creates them.
The political class should take notes or take cover. When Fosh makes a move, it’s calculated. And his seemingly simple beginnings often snowball into movements that demand national attention.
Yes, Fosh is up to something again. And if his past moves are anything to go by, this one could help shape the 2027 political landscape.
Let’s watch and wait.
