Buhari Mourns Yinka Odumakin by Nobody: 4:02pm On Apr 03, 2021
…Describes him as man of conviction

PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has condoled with the family, friends and acquaintances of Yinka Odumakin, spokesman of Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere.

Odumakin was also spokesman to the then Gen Buhari in 2011, when he ran for President on the platform of Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), now defunct.

The President in a statement issued by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Chief Femi Adesina in Abuja, Saturday, recalled Odumakin as dutiful, and a person of conviction, expressing sorrow at his demise, when he had a lot more to contribute to society and the nation at large.

President Buhari prayed God to grant repose to the soul of the departed activist, and comfort all those who mourn him.

Re: Buhari Mourns Yinka Odumakin by Vaughanlanrewaj:
He was once the Spokesman of PMB so one can relate with why PMB will mourn his loss. Besides, he is still relatively young and can pass for a younger one to PMB.

I still recall that it was Asiwaju Tinubu who sponsored the overseas treatment of Egbon Yinka Odumakin when he was critically ill some few years ago and that intervention by Asiwaju Tinubu was very helpful to him and saved his life.

How he suddenly turned on Asiwaju Tinubu and insults him daily in his latter days sounds so bizzare. Asiwaju Tinubu really suffered from the hands of people he has helped but still turn against him yet forgives them and takes them back just like with the Obanikoros of this world.I wished Egbon Yinka had reconciled with Asiwaju Tinubu like others before he answered the call.visit www.freestuffsng.com for latest freestuffs in Nigeria.May God console the family.

Y lair against Buhari.
Just issue a statement signed by the minister information with mention Buhari.

It is annoying to keep mentioning Buhari when we all know it's not true.

Maybe he expected to be the minister of information or the special media advice to Buhari and that's why he went against Buhari's government.

And if the story is try true that Tinubi saved his life in the past and he went against Tinubu like that then he was very ungrateful.

Whatever sha, May he rest in peace.

Buhari that has probably not heard of odumakin demise, don't underestimate the slowly of a vegetable president with ear infection

Even if they show him odunmakin picture he's probably too senile to remember him

Re: Buhari Mourns Yinka Odumakin by Soolmus:
huh


Asshole President

Odumakin did all the work with you in CPC then you went ahead to pick Atiku's spokesperson Garba Shehu, and Femi Adesina

As an Editor Femi Adesina use to publish editorials insulting Buhari, as Atiku's spokesperson Garba Shehu used to Insult Buhari, it was Yinka Odumakin that took the insults and deflect them

God forbid Buba Galadima also dies , Buhari would also react and mourn

.

Traitors don't die well. He was with Buhari in 2003, 2007 and 2011 when Buhari lost the election consecutively. Few months to 2015 election, Odumakin and some groups in Civil Society Organization (CSO) collected some millions from Goatluck Jonathan. That was how Odumakin cross carpeted to PDP. Goatluck Jonathan and PDP lost the election and Odumakun started fighting Buhari and Tunubu tooth and nail.

At the end of the day, Buhari is currently ball in in UK, Tinubu is balling in Bourdillon while Odumakin is six feet under the soil.

Whom God hath blessed, no idiot can curse.
