A pan Yoruba youth organizations, Igbimo Odo Yoruba, has raised an alarm about a plot by the federal government to clampdown on some leaders of the Nigerian leaders and elders forum comprising Afenifere, Northern Elders Forum, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Pan-Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF) and Middle Belt Forum, with the aim of weakening the group’s perceived opposition to the President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration by using the Nigerian Police Force and the Department of State Services to execute a series of arrests targeting key chieftains of the groups such as Comrade Yinka Odumakin, Dr Junaid Mohammed, Chief John Nwodo, Dr Isuwa Dogo, Chief Ayo Adebanjo and others, on trumped-up charges.

The group alleged in a press statement released Friday by its Coordinator, Comrade Olufemi Lawson, in Lagos that the plot also involves executing illegal searches on residential and business premises of persons believed to be arrow heads of the groups, with the ultimate objective of silencing them so to as cripple their criticisms of the Mr Buhari led All Progressives Congress (APC) administration in the country.

The youth group also alleged that the plot is aimed at decapitating the any opposition to the “now unpopular” government of President Buhari, which is desperately seeking a second term in office come 2019.

Making reference to the recent illegal raid on the Abuja residence of elder statesman and Niger Delta leader, Mr Edwin Clark, the group alleged that it was the first step in the series of orchestrated actions geared towards silencing the opposition to the Buhari’s government, which has been mainly championed by the Nigerian Leaders and Elders Forum.

The group further stated that the glaring failures of the APC administration in the country and the increasing agitation for the restructuring of the country, being spearheaded by the Elders and Leaders, is responsible for the federal government’s plot to clampdown on those persons, who are now considered to be the arrowhead of the opposition to the Buhari’s government.

According to the group, the increasing resort to dirty tactic fits into the pattern of the Buhari’s administration abuse of federal institutions, including the police, DSS, the military and the regulatory agencies, to harass and intimidate the opposition.

The group also stated that the recent events are proof of the desperation of the Buhari’s administration, which it alleged is determined to make sure that Nigeria is plunged into chaos through its anti-democratic activities.

“We are therefore using this medium to alert Nigerians and the international community of the evil machinations of the Federal government and the APC to throw Nigeria into crisis.

“We also call on Nigerians and the global community to take note of the desperate tactics of this administration and do whatever they can to prevail on President Buhari not to plunge the country into chaos,” the group further stated.

The group warned that any crisis arising from the desperate antics of the federal government would not augur well for Nigeria and her democracy, adding that the country “must not be allowed to be plunged into crisis for whatever reason.”

Why raise alarm now when you all brought him into power.
You also supported him in his python dance.
Sit back and enjoy your own share of the dance.

This is nothing compared to what will befall the nation after the election
Herdsmen are regrouping and attracting new members from all Africa countries daily

It will be ok no one will hear you cry
This you brought on your self just for VP position

V

Good morning everyone. How was your night?

te

That's the best na, let him dig his already deep grave..the Dunce keeps acquiring swears for his generations to come. I'm sure the family of Policemen and soldiers that died in the hands of his foot men would be rejoicing

.

It still marvels me that despite Yoruba's educational advancement, they have continued to support this tyrant to be in power beyond 2019.

Who has bewitched us in this country? A country full of smart people is left in the hands of one Mr Integrity who thinks corruption to be only when u steal from public treasury. Bet me, if Buhari stays beyond 2019, Nigeria will witness the biggest rife and disenchantment we have never seen in the land.

Can u imagine a presidency defending an Abba Kyari in a scam that every sensible person knows that what those young men are saying is true? Endless instances yet some people open up their mouth to say they are fighting corruption. Fighting corruption indeed.

i pray make there is peace after 2019 general election

Freedom of speech is now a scholarship by the FG for those in in tune with the FG.

That is what happens when you have no idea how your government runs. Buhari is not in charge. We keep getting orders from leeches

I hope every one young Nigerian is seeing this. Enough of recycling. Please let's move forward with purpose.

FALSE ALARM
These people are nothing but pathetic youth group. How will you just sit down at corner and be making stupid assumption that someone somewhere is plotting to arrest you? Wtf!
Everyone is just coming up with his own propaganda against this government all because election is near and the need to castigate the government after getting money from the opposition is warranted. We'll not fall for this.

.

take note
yeroba Muslims are the ones supporting Buhari
they're 100% committed to the caliphate

Good development

The desperation to hang on to power by all means despite being rejected by the majority of the people is what will bring down this administration.

I don't mind, even if it's to arrest the so called elders that brought the country down and bomb them at once. I support anything that will make country better and create better future for youth.

arrest all greedy elders and dump them in jail. most of them betrayed Nigeria for this lifeless bubu.
