Akindele said that rather, “it is time for Yoruba leaders to really come together and speak with one voice.”
The political scientist spoke on the telephone in reaction to the division in the group and the pronouncements and counter-pronouncements coming from the emeritus leader and elder statesman, Chief Reuben Fasoranti and the current leader, Chief Ayo Adebanjo over dualistic support for presidential candidates and the outcome of the election.
While the Adebanjo group of Afenifere supported Labour Party’s governorship candidate, Peter Obi and as well believed he won the February 25 presidential election, the Fasoranti group supported All Progressives Congress standard bearer, Bola Tinubu, and stood by Tinubu’s victory as declared by Independent National Electoral Commission.
Akindele said, “These our leaders have the advantage of longevity, then they should allow us to benefit from it rather than causing the crisis.”
