The Yoruba Party in the United Kingdom (YPUK) garnered 261 votes but failed to secure a seat in the general election.
YPUK only put forward one candidate for the Peckham Constituency according to TheCable.
In June, YPUK, a party founded by Olusola Oni, said it was fielding candidates in the election to empower the Yoruba voice in British politics.
The party’s campaign promises included climate change action, reduction of taxes, quality national health service, immigration and “assisting Yoruba domiciled in the United Kingdom to achieve full potentials”.
