Afenifere lambasts Gov Akeredolu over comments on Yoruba Nation
The Yoruba socio-cultural group, Afenifere, has criticised Governor of Ondo State, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu over his comments on the separatist agenda of Yoruba Nation agitators.
The Informant247 earlier reported that the governor has said that the separatist agenda will not succeed in the Southwest region.
The Yoruba sociocultural organization said the comments of the Governor Akeredolu corroborate the scarcity of statesmanship in Nigeria which was as a result of the lust for political power.
The Afenifere said that Nigerian presidency will have to come from South East to solve separatists’ agitations in the country.
The Secretary General, of the organization, Sola Ebiseni, in a statement issued in Akure, the capital of the state said, “So, let Akeredolu not boast of any capacity to dictate the method adopted by the Yoruba agitators or seek to set the rest of Nigeria against his Ndigbo colleagues or the entire South East in his unhidden separatist agenda of securing undue advantage for his party and region in the quest for the Nigerian President of Southern extraction.
“We state for the umpteenth time, that the true and real recipe for peace and continued corporate existence of Nigeria, ipsofacto, is an arrangement that will guarantee regional equity and not an ‘emi lo kan’ philosophy in the mode of King Louis’s l’état c’est moi.”
