- National Leader of the Pan-Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere, Pa Ayo Adebanjo, has said political leaders and governors of the South-West region are afraid of clamouring for restructuring because they are afraid of President Muhammadu Buhari.

National Leader of the Pan-Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere, Pa Ayo Adebanjo, has said political leaders and governors of the South-West region are afraid of clamouring for restructuring because they are afraid of President Muhammadu Buhari.
While speaking with the press on Sunday, the Afenifere leader said South-West political leaders and governors have been silent in the face of the worsening situation of things in the country because they don’t want to offend Buhari.
According to him, the former governor of Lagos, Bola Tinubu, has failed to speak for his people because of his 2023 presidential bid, for which he is expecting Buhari’s support.
Adebanjo also added that Tinubu is unaware that Buhari has an ulterior motive, noting that the president is only using the All Progressives Congress (APC) national leader to achieve his own political goal.

Responding to the question if Yoruba leaders are not speaking because they’re afraid of Buhari, he said: “That is correct and the reason is that many of them are under Tinubu. The exception is the Governor of Oyo State, Seyi (Makinde).
“They are all under the canopy of Tinubu, who himself is under the canopy of Buhari. But they are deceiving themselves that Buhari would hand over to him (Tinubu) since they supported him (Buhari). I have said it openly before and I would say it again that Buhari is deceiving Tinubu and Tinubu is deceiving Buhari. I’m an old man and I’m a funeral candidate already, so quote me. If Tinubu contests the primary in APC today, he will fail.” He said.
