Yoruba group, Afenifere has said that President Muhammadu Buhari should have resigned or stepped aside.
The group noted that it is expedient he resigns due to his inability to address insecurity and the dwindling economic challenges confronting the country.

The Pan Yoruba Socio-Political Group, Afenifere, has said that if President Muhammadu Buhari had self-respect, he should have resigned or stepped aside.

Its Acting national leader, Pa Ayo Adebanjo said this during the 95th birthday ceremony of Pa Reuben Fasoranti and the dedication of a church in his honour at Iju/Ita Ogbolu in Akure North council area of Ondo state.

Adebanjo said that President Buhari ought to have resigned over his administration’s inability to address insecurity and the dwindling economic challenges confronting the country.

The Acting national leader of the group lamented that the Buhari led government had incapacitated the country and had failed to address the increasing wave of insecurity and downturn of the economy.

According to him, the President had failed the people of the country, there is no better time to leave but now, noting that Buhari’s government can no longer handle the situation.

Adebanjo said : “I have told them that in a better and civilized country he should have gone long ago. If he has self-respect, he should have gone because everything has to fall.

“What is he presiding over? Is it over corruption, security, education? Law and order have broken down in the country for the past three years.

“It is only because Nigerians are over tolerance of despots, that is why he is still there.

Adebanjo equally lashed out at the youth saying they have failed the country.

”The younger generation has failed the country. The country was not as bad as this when we were demonstrating self-governance.

“They want the old men to fight their cause for them. Why should people like me be in the trenches at 93 and Baba Fasoranti at 95? Where are those in their 40s and 30s?

“When we were at their age, we were on the street, at Lagos, London, everywhere and when we were in the university. What we have to say is jobbery where you can get somebody in the government to get you a job.

“You are PDP in the morning, APC in the afternoon and SDP in the evening, and they say they are young, the youth should be ashamed of themselves”

Adebanjo however expressed optimism that there is light at the end of the tunnel.

“As a Christian, I still have hope. If Nigerians are conscious of their right, and they know what to do but where is the demonstration in the country that the Buhari government must go?
