Pan-Yoruba socio-cultural group,
Afenifere, has claimed that President Muhammadu Buhari’s stance on the call for
restructuring of the country is an indication that he is confused over the
issue.
In his Independence Day
broadcast, Buhari had said irresponsible groups had hijacked the restructuring
debate.
However, Afenifere, in its
reaction said Buhari was confusing call for restructuring with that for the
breakup of Nigeria.
Afenifere’s National Publicity
Secretary, Yinka Odumakin said Buhari should make a clear distinction between
the two and work towards rescuing the country from imminent collapse.
“Buhari is indirectly promoting
those working for the break-up of Nigeria by ignoring the demands of Nigerians
for restructuring”, Odumakin told Punch.
Odumakin said, “He should
separate those agitating for restructuring from those calling for a break-up of
the country. I think he is confusing restructuring with break-up.
“Those calling for restructuring
are those working to avert the breakup of Nigeria while those opposed to it are
the ones working for the break-up of the country.
“Let the President deal with
restructuring; if he does not listen to the agitations for restructuring, he is
promoting those who are working for the break-up of the country.”
Buhari is simply obeying the instructions of the cabals in Aso Villa.
ReplyDeleteI hope Odumakin listened or even read d President's speech..he made it clear that restructuring or whatever is d duty of the National or State Assemblies. And he was right. The only organ that can amend the constitution are d assemblies.So if Odumakin and his Afeniferi were smart or influential, they should push d debate in the House of Assemblies.Anyways, we know people like Odumakin and their likes..shameless people.. Carry on Baba..we are with you..
