Afenifere Group Rejects Jonathan’s Endorsement (punch) by tunwumi: 2:23am On Jan 29, 2015
http://www.punchng.com/politics/afenifere-group-rejects-jonathans-endorsement/A pan-Yoruba association, Afenifere Renewal Group, has disassociated itself from the endorsement of President Goodluck Jonathan by another pan-Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere.The ARG, which broke out of the original Afenifere in 2008, said Jonathan did not deserve the support of the people of the South-West as he had marginalised the Yorubas.In a statement by its publicity secretary, Kunle Famoriyo, the group described the use of its insignia to promote the endorsement as fraudulent and an attempt to deceive the Yoruba people.The group, therefore, maintained that the older Afenifere was not speaking for the Yoruba but for itself.The statement read, “It has come to our notice that some broadcast stations are using the ARG’s name and logo to promote the said endorsement. This is fraudulent and we wish to advise media houses to be wary of such fraudulent promoters, especially now that public interest must be defended by the media.“The ARG is not party to the endorsement and does not, in fact, think that the performance of President Goodluck Jonathan since May 2010 is worth the endorsement of any patriotic citizen. We believe there is a difference between ‘transformation,’ which President Jonathan promised Nigerians in 2011 and mere ‘reform’ of the same governance culture that Nigerians have rejected.“The ARG does not dictate to the generality of the Yoruba people, rather it gives voice to their feelings and aspirations.”Copyright PUNCH"

The ArG broke away from the original Afenifere group in 2008.They said jonathan marginalised the yorubas. Lol this is quite funny, they're not even the original Afenifere's. Gej doesn't need their endorsement btw. We don't pay people to vote for us, they vote out of love,love brought us this far and love will take us all through to 2019.

When we have a socio-cultural group in a multi-parties nation like Nigeria, to endorse a single candidate on behalf of the whole gruop is wrong. What is the fate of the other members of the ethnicity in other parties. Freedom of association should be endorsed.
Re: Afenifere Group Rejects Jonathan’s Endorsement (punch) by BekeeBuAgbara: 3:09am On Jan 29, 2015
Afenifere endorsed GEJ, the break away faction the Afenifere Renewal Group says no. The difference is clear.

Afenifere lost its relevance long ago.

Anyways, whatever their opinions are,
we've decided already.

Sai Buhari
Sai Osinbajo
Long live Western Nigeria

I know it was fake news initially.

How can Yorubas reject one of their own, i.e. Osinbajo and vote for this clueless man.

Afenifere - said Yes
Afenifere Renewal - said No.

Question is; which of this two groups is more relevant and has more members?

But whichever one is, both groups have little or no effect on SW voters. I can't remember the last time a yoruba voted for a candidate just because he is the adopted candidate of AG or ARG.

Again, another denial.

seems if you walk past Jonathan and smile, they call it endorsement.

IBB had to also deny. Anyway, why does someone who believes he's the best ever, have to be so desperate for endorsements if truly he believes himself?
