Yoruba Elders Regrets Voting General Buhari As President by harryz1000: 11:48am On Jun 30, 2015
President Muhammau Buhari may have lost
the support of some Yoruba elders less
than 100 days into his tenure.
The leaders are particularly angry with
Buhari over the recently concluded
National Assembly elections, which they
feel was a big blow to the South west.

They berated the president for his silence
and suggested that their region might not
benefit from the Buhari administration
despite voting massively for the president
during the April 2015 presidential polls.
“For the fact that the South-West played a key
role in the emergence of Buhari as the
President, it is expected that they would
occupy a more strategic position than the post
of vice president”, said one of the elders.
They argued that the National Assembly
leadership election has given the
impression that their region is weak
politically.

Some of the leaders who also participated
in the last National Conference also say
the region must re-strategise to
assert itself in the politics of the nation.
They argued that the position of Professor
Yemi Osinbanjo, the current vice president,
who is a South west indigene is not a
powerful position.
Chief Ayo Opadokun, a South-West leader,
who spoke to the Nigerian Pilot yesterday
on the current power imbalance, noted that
the Yoruba race made a great mistake
by not re-electing former president
Goodluck Jonathan, considering what he
had in stock for the zone.

He emphasised that the implementation of
the National Conference report would
elevate the standard of the zone, which
is the reason people of the South-
West should have queued behind
Jonathan.
It will be recalled that during the
electioneering period, the Peoples
Democratic Party Presidential Campaign
Organisation warned the leaders of the All
Progressives Congress to stop insulting
Yoruba Obas.

Buhari is a failure

Sai buhari is not an Oh yes man, he can't take orders from people talk less from a bloody civilian. Tinubu wants to turn the whole Nigeria into Lagos were he controls but sai buhari knows he can't give him such powers.

I still believe in the man called buhari.
