A Chieftain of Yoruba socio-political organization, Afenifere, Ayo
Adebanjo has claimed that the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal
Government is out to “dominate” and not to rule Nigeria.
Adebanjo made the claim while faulting the refusal of the Buhari’s
All Progressives Congress, APC-led government to succumb to the
yearnings of some Nigerians and restructure the country.
Speaking with the Sun, Adebanjo maintained that the refusal to
restructure the country is responsible for the emergence of groups
agitating for Nigeria’s break-up.
According to Adebanjo, “There is no Nigeria. Why is Biafra on, they
say they are being cheated? Why is Avengers on, they say they are being
cheated? Of late now, we have been suppressing the Oduduwa youths, and
they are saying because the peaceful way we are agitating is not
acceptable to the North.
“This boy leading Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, I have always said that, he is
not as bad as you think. The young man is saying that the Federal
Government is not keen on being fair. He gave the instance of Aburi
which they went back on, and he gave the instance of other things they
went back.
“Right now, they are not sure of restructuring in a way that will be
fair. So, let me get out from the marriage. If you are in a club and you
feel cheated, would you still remain in that club?
“That is the case. The Federal Government is mischievous and not
sincere about keeping the country together. Look at the Federal
Government saying it doesn’t want restructuring. Pastor Tunde Bakare,
recently explained that he gave a memorandum to Buhari on how to do
restructuring, but the government is saying that it doesn’t want
restructuring.
“The party only want to be mischievous. Buhari under APC doesn’t want
to rule, he wants to dominate. Those who are being oppressed resist,
and if you think you can rule us under this condition, you are playing
with fire.”
