All Progressives Congress (APC) Has Set The Stage For Massive Rejection In Southwest With Its Insults Against Yoruba Leaders For Endorsing President Goodluck Jonathn’s Re- Election
Amos Esele
Yoruba leaders yesterday took a swipe at the All Progressives Congress (APC) for describing them as hungry contract seekers and dishonest people because of their endorsement of President Jonathan’s re-election bid. Speaking with The UNION in separate interviews yesterday, Secretary of the Pan- Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere, Mr Yinka Odumakin, Dr. Frederick Fasehun of the Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) and elder statesman, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, the Yoruba leaders describe the deriding statement signed and given to journalists on Wednesday by Director, Media and Publicity of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, Mallam Garba Shehu, as unfortunate and a disservice to the interests of his principals in Yorubaland. Odumakin said the decision to endorse President Jonathan was based on principles and a realistic assessment of the agenda of the two foremost presidential candidates in the March 28 poll, Jonathan and APC’s General Muhammadu Buhari.
He said: “Our endorsement is a vote of our people for freedom which the national conference represents. It is quite unfortunate that Garba Shehu, a Fulani man, would think he knows what is good for the Yoruba people.And what he has said with such feudal arrogance is a disservice to his principal. There is a consensus among the Yoruba on the confab. The APC never supported the Confab. He has deeply hurt the interests of his principal. His is a blatant attempt to force feudalism and continue what the Jihadists, Alimi and Uthman Dan Fodio tried without success to force on Yorubaland. We reject it.” According to him, “Yorubaland will not be part of a colonized, feudalistic contraption. On March 28, Yoruba people will vote for their freedom by massively rejecting the reactionary elements the APC is trying to force on our people”. In his reaction, Dr. Fasehun said the choice between the two presidential candidates was a matter of who represents democracy and true federalism. “We have endorsed Jonathan. We stand to be corrected.
We have always been advocating for peoples democracy and true federalism. The Southwest has endorsed Jonathan. If anybody has a better option, they should let us know”, he said. Adebanjo, who was one of the elder statesmen that represented the Southwest at the 2014 national conference, simply dismissed as “petty”, Shehu’s statement faulting the conference as basis of the endorsement. He said: “If anybody who attended the conference said the Yoruba did not get what they took to the conference, that person is ignorant. I won’t join words with petty people on this. I leave it to people of Yorubaland to decide the fate of those who are talking.” It would be recalled that Shehu, presenting APC’s perspective, in a signed statement described Yoruba elders who endorsed Jonathan’s reelection bid as broke and did so to uplift their economy

You must be an illiterate. You don't even understand what "set" means in the context of that sentence. And you are asking for another person's certificate. Shame on you. You can put "sat" when you want to write yours.

You are an idiot

hahaha

Sometimes i find it difficult deleting contact of people that have passed on, and i keep seeing them too on Facebook is anything really wrong if you unfriend them? what really keeps me thinking is people keep posting to their walls as if they are going to read it and while they were alive they have them as friends on Facebook but you never see a post till when they are late. Why?

ok

GEJisBOKO:
Jonathan's snipers are attacking Gombe in other to give credence to his arguement about election postponment

you are a fool. because your family is not there you are talking rubbish.

Lol. Don't waste your precious time and resources on blind and desperate PDP goons. We all know GEJ's penchant for unsubtle abuse of power. If he could use the police to ridicule the Speaker, would he not have arrested Buhari long ago for forgery, lying under oath or even supporting terrorism if he had the slightest evidence? Toothless bulldogs. I am surprised that the zealous IG of Police has not ordered his arrest yet.

PDP has run out of ideas that's why they have resorted to mudslinging and have chosen Fani-Kayode as their spokesman; an infamous and flippant "racist" and a man of oscillating loyalties. It is hardly surprising anyway because they worship a man who cannot lead without buying loyalty with bribes. A man whose corruption cannot be hidden by propaganda. A man whose consisent and numerous faux pas have made Reuben Abati's statements appear illogical and simplistic. Well, the defence of barefaced corruption makes even the wisest man appear simple.

I am glad that Cambridge is involved in this matter because, bribes from GEJ's camp will be useless. IBB's open support for Buhari really hit Mr President. He was begging for the favour of the General and got stinging rejection in return.

Let us see the next childish tactic of the PDP. I hope they will not disappoint us. Comedians.

PLEASE IS IT "set" or "sat"? i dont understand

watching
