Afenifere Denies Endorsing Buhari - Sahara Reporters by Joevics(m): 11:24am On Jan 31, 2019
Says Faction That Endorsed Buhari Are Historical Renegades.


The pan-Yoruba socio-cultural group, Afenifere, has distanced itself from media reports that it has endorsed President Muhammadu Buhari’s re-election bid.

The group denounced the endorsement in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital on Wednesday, saying those involved in the endorsement – Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, Chief Ayo Fasanmi and Senator Olabiyi Durojaye — were not members of the group.

A statement made available by Yinka Odumakin, the group's National Publicity Secretary, referred to those involved as historical renegades.

The statement read: “We ordinarily would not respond to a gathering of historical renegades but for the sake of the unwary who may have been confused by the nefarious action of these impostors.

“We say without equivocation that minus Senator Ayo Fasanmi, who had a past connection with Afenifere till 2003, and Senator Olabiyi Durojaye, who is presently an employee of Buhari, all the others at the summit including Prof Yemi Osinbajo have never been known in Afenifere.

“If these are Afenifere, they would never have gathered for Buhari’s endorsement in any part of Yorubaland on a day the Nigerian Tribune, the legacy of Obafemi Awolowo who is the founder of Afenifere, was being relaunched.”

Odumakin berated Osinbajo for being absent from the activities held to mark the late sage’s remembrance activities, despite being married to Awolowo’s grand-daughter.

He added: “The godfather of this fake group is, of course, Bola Tinubu who was made governor by Afenifere in 1999, when his real character was not known.

“We tell the Tinubu followers that we don’t deny them the right to support Buhari. If they call themselves South-West Miyetti Allah, it worries us not. They should only stop the fraudulent claim to Afenifere.”

I v always known that the highly cerebral Afenifere can't support Buhari especially for being out of line on restructuring which has been d nucleus of Afenifere endorsement. What APC gains with fictitious claims of support that doesn't exist still amazes me. Odumakin remains d official mouthpiece of Afenifere and I must state that with d lively town hall meeting last night powered by NTA that d AtikuObi camp came out tops, a lot of indifferent persons have decided to support PDP not cos they are saints but have marshalled out implementable roadmap towards getting Nigeria working again.

The short Devil lying fake pastor must ask for a refund from the fake Afenifere.

Buhari/Osinbade should never be an option. The difference as they say, is clear.

We have two set of Afenifere. The genuine Afenifere group and that established by Tinubu. Same way Tinubu created is own OPC. The OPC that endorsed Sanwo and Buhari are the ones created by him. Yinka Odumankin Afenifere and Gani Adam/Late Fasheun OPC are the recognised group

It beats my imagination that enlightened individuals still root for Buhari apart from d paid Zombies on Nairaland. The man is not even competent enough to be the admin of a WhatsApp group.

The man is just being packaged for us by the cabals that wish to wield power at all cost .
It is our collective duty to rid the country of these selfconceited individuals by sacking them from d seat of power come February.
They r obviously blind to the plight and sufferings of the common man!

I suggest you think again. If there is Yemi Osinbajo in the cards, there is nothing impossible for the people known for incredible summersaults.
