Notable members of the Yoruba Self-Determination Struggle also known as Ilana Omo Oodua led by Femi Afolabi on Saturday rejected the resignations of Bamji Akintoye and Wale Adeniran as Leader and Chairman, respectively.
Afolabi, at a media chat in Ibadan, however, insisted that the duo were still recognised as the leaders of the group.
He said, “Akintoye and Adeniran have contributed immensely to the struggle and still have a lot to contribute to the actualisation of Yoruba nation. “We are not unaware of the campaign of calumny by some Pseudo Yoruba Nationalists who are paid agents of the Fulani oligarchy to malign and destroy the hard-earned reputation of the duo based on purile and pedestrian allegations that cannot pass a kindergarten test of empirical verification.”
He noted that the leadership quality of Akintoye enhanced his revalidation and reaffirmation as the leader of the group till date.All rights reserved.
