Calls For Jonathan’s Impeachment Plot To Abort National Conference – Afenifere by emrall: 5:52am On Dec 21, 2013
CALL FOR JONATHAN'S IMPEACHMENT PLOT TO OBORT NATIONAL CONFERENCE - AFENIFERE
BEN AGANDE,

The leadership of the Pan Yoruba Cultural Organisation, Afenifere yesterday accused those opposed to the proposed national conference of being behind the threat to impeach president Goodluck Jonathan.

The group stated this yesterday when it met with the president at the presidential Villa.

Leader of the group, Reuben Fasoranti who led a delegation of the group to the president warned the president to expect more resistance to the national conference in form of letter writings and calls for his impeachment.

According to Fasoranti,”forces that have benefitted from the imbalance and inequity of decades would not fold their arms and watch Nigeria restructured into an entity that works for all it’s component units. This is why all manners of “letters” were posted to you with “impeachment” calls. Expect more of that as the process moves on by those who want the National Dialogue aborted.

“Afenifere considers the National Conference as the soul of a new Nigeria and as such much more important than anything in the polity, 2015 election inclusive.

“That is why we are strongly advising that the conference be concluded early so that the 2015 elections can be conducted on the basis of the new constitution.

“Finally we urge you to be more vigilant and rest assured of Afenifere’s support in the days ahead for as long as you are committed to give Nigeria a proper National Conference which you re-emphasised when you received the report of the Advisory Committee two days ago.

“We believe the time has come for us to sit and find lasting solutions from the stakeholders across Nigeria to our challenges as against temporary reliefs that bring greater and long-lasting sorrows which some letter writers and their group have given us since 1966? he said.

Spokesman of the group, Yinka Odumakin who spoke with state house correspondents after the meeting with the president that “the national conference was very important to the group because we believe Nigeria today is at crossroad where we must not take the wrong turn.

” Since 1960 the country has taken a wrong turn at critical junction. But for the first time we have an opportunity to discuss Nigeria to take far-reaching decisions on how to move this country forward. And we have seen what is happening in the polity that because this fundamental change is about to take place in this country, the forces that have held this country by the jugular since 1956 they are congregating. All manner of letter are flying here and there, impeachment call here and there because they want to abort this national Conference.

“We have assured the president that for as long as he remains focus to give us a proper national conference, Aferenifere will always support him. And he has assured us that this conference is more important to him than any other thing in the country today. And we appreciate the way, the spirit and the level at which he is thinking, which put us on the same wave length.

” I want to emphasis that for as long as he stays focus on the national conference agenda, yoruba nation, Afenifere will support him, because we believe that this is the most important thing at this stage to serve Nigeria from disintegrating. Centrifugal forces are all over the place and we must make sure we make Nigeria in a way that works. That is what we have come to do and that is why we are here” he said.

Presidential Spokesman, Dr Reuben Abati told state house correspondents that the president told the delegation that he has no personal interest in the conference, adding that he will neither interfere in the proceedings of the delegation nor tamper with its outcome.

Those in the Afenifere delegation included the governor of Ondo state, dr Segun Mimiko, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, chief Olaniwun Ajayi, Iyiola Omisore and Supo Sonibaire among others.

The only reasonable voice from the sw these days. The recent mergers and decampings and antagonisms directed at the president are nothing but a cocktail of intimidating tactics prepared by some boko politicians , in collaboration with their owambe lapdogs.. Thse jeers and taunts and tantrums being thrown around by a tribal zealot like Buhari, a fulani errand boy like Obasanjo or even a come and chop politician like Tinubu are well ochestrated attacks marshalled to wranckle Jonathana chain. These are not coincidences.. Those
who saw a big country of well over 150,000000 as nothing but a civil war bootty post 1970 are putting up their last fight. It is the duty of all goood , irrespective of their political affliations to rally arround a president under a ferocious seige to make sure that this attempt to remake. Nigeria in a way that favours her teaming millions and not her theiving minnions is not scuttled by a restive bunch of highly unproductive elite.. This is the fight ahead of us. For all Nigerian citizens frustrated at the alarming rate of Nigerias perrenial underacheivement, this is a generational call for action.! Put succintly, it is time to fight back. We are too big a people, too sopphisticated a culture to be held donw perpetually to serve as serfs to some empty bullies like obasanjo. Our future should be too important too be dictated by dead men like Babangida and Danjuma. Confrences were held to reach agreements that led to Nigerias independence. With all troubles and tribulations this woefully underperforming country has gone through since independence, talks are needed to set things right again. . Keep the president in your prayrs. The shaks are circling. When you see Obasanjo, Buhari, Babangida and their footsoldiers threatening fire and brimestone, you should know we are on the right path.. . t e f ne

First off, I'm still wondering why you threw in Buhari's name in the above nonsensical rant. Second, do you really expect us to believe that GEJ--- A man thats refused to declare his assets, has proven to be utterly corrupt, divisive and tribalistic, forgives international fugitives and calls them his mentors, was willing to give N4Billion of the country's to his wife to play around with constructing a meaningless building ---- really has the good interest of Nigeria at heart?

Lmao

First tell him to ask Dame to resign her post as Permanent Sec. in Bayelsa State, afterall shes never showed up for work before., not even once.

Will you STF up for once? We are here thinking of how to move the country forward where the voice of the common man can be heard, you are here bringing your high level bigotry to bare. The future of this country lies in the hands of the citizens, not only the politicians. So this is the opportunity for all well meaning Nigerians to rally round the President in ensuring that the national conference is convened, and a new constitution which represents the yearning of all Nigerians is drafted. I still have hope in Nigeria, we all, irrespective of our part affiliation, should support this call. God bless Nigeria.

I too still have hope in Nigeria, but she must be restructured to favor all her citizens. Many people think GEJ wants to stay after 2015, but it is a lie what GEJ is doing is set the foundation for a new Nigeria through sustainable policies like power reform, Agric revolution, Automobile industry revamp, upgrade of infrastructure and finally a national conference where all the ethnic nationalities gather together in a round table to discuss how our new Nigeria will be which will end with peoples constitution.

May God bless Afenifere, those that are opposing this national conference are people that have been feeding off this nation, they have been unproductive, without contributing anything to Nigerias development. They should better get ready to work and be productive because after this national conference, the lazy, unproductive ones will have no free meals to feed on again rather they will have no other option than to become productive, especially the bloated and lazy political class.

People can deceive themselves if they want to... I just returned from Ibadan and its clear that everyone in the main SW cities are ready for the removal of GEJ, the only thing that saddens me is that Yinka Odumakin who I respect so much is still being the mouthpiece of these selfish old men. I know he hates all things Tinubu (and rightly so) but even he needs to realise that even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Anyway the people in SW will continue to speak clearly in the next few months.

I challenge all of you "believers" in fairy tale stories to show me anywhere in the world, at anytime in world history where a revolutionary constitution was agreed without the presence of strife and conflict. From the Magna Carta to the breakaway of South Sudan, the two ingredients above our always needed to get someone who has power to agree to relinquish power. A smooth 2014 for GEJ will just lead to what OBJ, Abdulsalami and others have done. Our best chance for a true peoples constitution was 1966, but mistakes were made by all parties.Let's stop falling for the same desperate trick over and over again.

Pls ooo am yoruba oyo state precisely, the game of politics in south-west is another tone which anyone can't conclude where the music we end bkos the game is become interesting.

As for Afenifere they are on their own, i dnt say the national conference should nt hold but for the game of politics is another tone.

For the 2015 election nobody can't predict yet until 2014 when each party began to present the credible candidate, majority of south-west has lost hop GEJ not bkos of the region but Nigeria, he has tribalise is administration. What the south- west need is constant Electricity and provisions of job to his people.

It is because they want the status quo to remain, the biggest problem we have in Nigeria are these powers that be, they want to keep on reaping where they did not sow, and to check mate them it will require someone at the top, that is what GEJ is out to do. Majority of ex and present Governors, Senators, Reps and other politicians and big business men are the boys of this powers that be, in fact this is the major reason why Nigeria is just the way it is, these men have held us hostage for long and now a door of opportunity is opening some people are talking rubbish. Anyway most of those opposing this are some how benefiting from this present evil system.

Well said bro! Thanks!

I've always held out hope that as long as there is Afenifere in the SW, there is hope for a voice of reason from that region.
Check out their history in the post military era of Nigeria and you will see a focused and truly enlightened organization teeming with intellectuals.
Alas the gangs of the west led by Tinubu almost grabbed the limelight!
