Afenifere: Yoruba are Tired of ACN and Will Kick Them Out

The desire of the ultimate god father, Bola Tinubu, and his Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN)for southwest regional integration and an alliance with the Buhari led Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) may prove a pipe dream as the leading Yoruba Forum, Afenifere, has declared that the Yoruba are tired of the ACN and would soon kick them out in subsequent elections.

The letter also revealed that Afenifere cooperated with Mimiko to ensure the defeat of the ACN.

This was contained in a letter by Afenifere leader, Reuben Fasoranti, to Ondo Governor, Olusegun Mimiko, congratulating him on his victory over the ACN.

The letter which mocked the ACN said inter alia "Afenifere salutes Mr. Governor and wishes him well.....This victory, amongst other things, is victory over god-fatherism, a rejection of political imposition and slavery from outside the state and the people’s hope of a better deal to come."

Continuing, Afenifere said "One or two of your predecessors have one way or the other broken the jinx of second term in office. But yours is unique and not associated with rancour or political upheaval. We appreciate God for you.”

It further said "There is a need for the exhibition of fair play and justice to all and carry the banner of progressive politics into national politics now that the eclipse of the ACN is unavoidable."

"“We entered into electoral cooperation with you (Mimiko) in the election for mutual respect in all ramifications for you to give better governance to our people, and for the creation of a forum for the emergence of a healthy third force to counter an emerging group under the leadership of few disrespectful, snobbish, arrogant, ravaging and power-thirsty politicians.

“In the march for progress and greater things to come, he should consider an all inclusive government to assist him in the governance of the state.”

So what happens to Fasola with whom Tinubu has been playing ping pong in corruption. Will he join PDP, seeing that ACN will soon become history just like AD and AC?
