Yoruba Refuses To Meet With Osibanjo For Nigeria’s Unity

A Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere Renewal Group,has refused to meet with Acting President Yemi Osinbajo stating that the South-West does not need a consultative meeting with the Acting President to discuss Nigeria’s unity as being demanded by some people.

In a statement on Wednesday by the group’s Publicity Secretary, Mr. Kunle Famoriyo, ARG urged the South-West governors to discharge their responsibilities by constantly taking in the changing political dynamics of the nation for their decisions and acts to cater to the welfare, wellbeing, and security of people in their domains.

According to him, “Yoruba people are never the agitators and our aspirations have never lacked clarity since (the) late Chief Obafemi Awolwo published ‘Path to Nigerian Freedom’ in 1947.“

Before now, government would play the ostrich until the rising temperature hit the roof and then deploy armed forces.

We note however the Acting President’s statement that “We have all agreed that Nigeria should remain one” and we recall the late Chief Bola Ige who noted that “there are two basic questions that must be answered by all Nigerians. One, do we want to remain as one country? Two, if the answer is yes, under what conditions?“Where the task of building a sustainable nationhood begins is the second question, which has remained unaddressed for the past five decades.

Answering this question bothers on reaching a consensus about a constitution that will guarantee the inalienable rights of social justice and political freedom for every Nigerian, irrespective of ethnic or religious inclination.”
