Afenifere lambasts Ondo gov over comments on agitations

Yoruba pan socio-cultural organisation, Afenifere, has lambasted Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu for saying separatist agenda would failed in the Southwest region.
It said the statement credited to Governor Akeredolu confirmed the scarcity of statesmanship in the country particularly faced with the lust for political power.

The Afenifere stated that the solution to separatists’ agitations was a Nigerian President of South East extraction and not what it termef ‘self-serving sanctimonious pontifications.’

Secretary General, Afenifere, Sola Ebiseni, in a statement issued in Akure, said there was no region in the country where the elite including the ruling class in Government were able to determine the methods adopted by agitators or succeeded in checkmating the effects thereof.

According to him, “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.”
