2019:
TINUBU MADE A “FOOLISH MISTAKE” WITH BUHARI, YORUBAS WILL VOTE ATIKU –
AFENIFERE
Elder statesman and Afenifere chieftain, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, has
said the Yoruba nation will not be deceived again by the national chairman of
the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, to vote for President
Muhammadu Buhari next year.
Speaking with Daily Independent, Adebanjo, revealed he has thrown
his weight behind Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
According to him, Tinubu succeeded in selling Buhari to the
South-West in 2015, due to his claim that the president has integrity and the
willpower needed to turn the fortunes of the country around.
According to Adebanjo, Tinubu himself has realised he made a great
mistake entering into alliance with Buhari, but he is ashamed of saying it out.
“Do you think we are stupid people in the South-West? Yoruba
people are more intelligent than all that. Tinubu succeeded in 2015 because of
the fake integrity attached to Buhari. He succeeded in bringing Buhari because
of the fake integrity attached to him but the last three years has exposed him
to be fake.
“People have seen him to be fake. He is not somebody anyone can
rely upon and I have no doubt in my mind that Tinubu would have seen the
stupidity of aligning with him. By now, Tinubu must have realised the foolish
mistake he made by aligning with him but he will not come out to admit it.
“Yoruba people are too intelligent to be used again. Once bitten,
twice shy. Tinubu has sold the Yoruba by aligning with Buhari, even at this
stage. He agreed with Buhari to do restructuring, to do federalism. When the
man now got there and he is not doing it, has Tinubu got the courage to pull
out?
“And I have said it to him and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo. They
are unfair to the Yoruba because everybody is thinking that because they
represent the Yoruba, all the things against the race, they would address them.
But they are quiet on them all.
“There are killings right and left, but they are quiet. They are
quiet on the issue of revenue allocation. Even the case of local government
under this restructuring, Tinubu took Obasanjo to court, it is part of
restructuring programme and the man who handled the case in court was Osinbajo.
“They won the case at the Supreme Court. Under what principle did
they take the then President Obasanjo to court? They sold out and the same
Osinbajo, who took Obasanjo to court for not following the federal system, is
now saying he does not understand what the federal system means”.
