A pan-Yoruba Youth socio-economic group, the Southwest Renaissance Group (SRG), has berated the APC presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, over the current crisis rocking the pan-Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere.

In a release signed by the Convener of the group, Hon. Olaitan Abdul Salam, at the weekend, the group referred to the APC candidate as a divider-in-chief, a chronic agent of division and destabilization, warning Yorubas to be wary about giving their support to Tinubu in next year’s presidential election.

“For a very long time, the Pan Yoruba socio cultural organization, Afenifere served as an umbrella and a rallying body for the Yoruba race.

“Unfortunately, Tinubu in his usual manner has come again to place his ambition above the peoples coexistence by tearing the once united body apart.

“It will be recalled that Afenifere leader, Pa. Ayo Fasoranti had hosted the APC presidential candidate, Tinubu and some eminent Yoruba bigwigs in his Akure home.

“This was after another Afenifere leader, Pa. Ayo Adebanjo had made open declaration that Afenifere group has adopted the Labour Party candidate, Peter Obi.

“We are not surprised by what is currently playing out, we know him too well as constant divider of brethren.

“In 2002, this same Bola Tinubu divided Afenifere to achieve his second term ambition as Lagos governor.

“He divided Yoruba Council of Elders in 2015 to control the Yoruba nation; and he has again divided Afenifere because of his 2023 presidential ambition,” the statement said.

The group further called on voters from the South-West region “to rise up and save our land. We must rescue our land from this perennial divider-in-chief and ensure that the Yoruba intreat in Nigeria’s politics should not be driven by ethnicity but the basic credential of electing a President who qualifies for an Omoluabi.”

South-West is already divided between Tinubu & Peter Obi.
& unfortunately the Northern gods who Tinubu urchins were hoping to inherit Buharis' northern votes from have all left A.P.C just like Sarki in order to support their brother Atiku or Kwankwaso.
I'm still wondering where the drug baron would get his so called Northern bloc votes from because from the information i'm getting in the north, 80% of northerners & Muslims are being sensitized in the mosques to all vote for Atiku.
& northerners never abandon their own.
At least Peter Obi is even sure of winning the South-South and South-East.
& the remaining Northern Christians who feel marginalized by the Muslim-Muslim ticket are sure voting for Peter Obi.
Vote Wisely.

That is his stock in trade to sow discord and division in camps he knows he cannot outrightly buy his way through. It is how he won the Lagos AD governorship primaries in 1998 by sending his agents to Ikorodu the stronghold of late Funsho 'Wilco' WIlliams to cause violence.

How can a bastard thief be controlling and dividing these old men group...

That is what tinubu is known for

Yoruba are not divided, u don't know about afenifere

We stand gidigba with ASIWAJU
