Ayo Adebanjo: Akande is Tied to Tinubu’s Apron Strings, Selling Out Yoruba to Help Him Become President

Ayo Adebanjo, acting leader of Afenifere, Yoruba socio-political group, has described Bisi Akande, former governor of Osun state, as a “political neophyte”.

Commenting on Tuesday during the Morning Show on ARISE News, Adebanjo added that the former Osun governor is tied to the apron strings of Tinubu.

“He (Bisi Akande) is too junior to me to be commenting on political matters. He is a political neophyte. He is tied to the apron strings of Tinubu,” he said.

“He is too junior for me to be commenting on what he said. I signed his papers to be governor. And the condition we gave for him to become governor was that of a sovereign national conference for the restructuring of the country back to federalism. That was the condition he was elected in 1999, and he reneged on that.

“They have sold out the Yoruba race to Muhammadu Buhari all because they want Tinubu to be president. That is not my business.

“But telling lies is the one I don’t know, and I don’t know how a man like Akande who claims that we all come from the root of Obafemi Awolowo can be taking pride in his participation in the government of one Buhari who they know is a disaster when all those who supported him initially are now regretting that they supported him.”
