Peter Obi Is Our Candidate – Afenifere Replies Akeredolu. The pan-Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere, has restated its endorsement of Peter Obi, Presidential candidate of the Labour party (LP) as its choice for the 2023 elections. The remarks followed a recent statement credited to Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, over the group’s endorsement of Peter Obi. The governor, in a statement, said, “Afenifere doesn’t speak for the Yoruba people on the endorsement of Peter Obi and that Afenifere is divided in respect of the purported endorsement.” But in its response, Afenifere said the decision to support Obi was a corporate decision of members of the group and some socio-cultural organisations in the country. A statement by the Group read: “The attention of Afenifere has been drawn to the statement credited to Akeredolu on the Afenifere’s endorsement of Obi for the 2023 presidential election. “To start with, we wish to reiterate the principled stance of the Afenifere that the next President of Nigeria should be from the South, and all things equitably considered, from the South-East, for which we consider Obi by his verifiable records as a two-term governor of Anambra State, the most competent and suitable. “It is a well-considered corporate decision debated for over a year of regular monthly meetings, validly conveyed in the best tradition of the organisation. “While we have our respect for Akeredolu and his colleagues of the Southern Governors Forum, which he leads, on their stand that it is only equitable that the next President of Nigeria after eight years of Buhari of Northern Nigeria extraction, should come from the South, we will not lend our support to those who betray that cause for the lucre of vice presidential porridge or those who see equity only from the parochial prism of their ethnic benefits. “We wish to state for the umpteenth time that Afenifere is not an apolitical Yoruba socio-cultural organisation, but from its inception, political machinery as the embodiment of the worldview of the Awolowo School of Thought on how Nigeria, a country of ancient and entrenched nationalities, may best be equitably, inclusively and peacefully governed. “These thoughts are encapsulated in the theory and practice of true federalism in its equitable and logical dimensions. “Finally, let it be said that Afenifere is not alone in this decision that the next President should be from the South and South-East specifically. “Afenifere conveyed its resolution through a press conference on September 26, 2022, and the Middle Belt Forum which converged in the Jos Township Stadium on September 28. Other ethnic nationality organisations, particularly of the Southern and Middle Belt Forum, of which Afenifere is a member and other well-meaning Nigerian leaders, are in agreement with this resolution which the nation needs most for an all-inclusive sense of belonging and attendant peaceful coexistence. 2 Likes 1 Share

There are more Yorubas on this forum than any other tribes, and despite that, Peter Obi is beating the urchins up and down and left and right. So I suggest you open your eyes please and stop being blinded by your own bigotry. Obidience does not do tribe! Innocentman86: 2 Likes |

Yes! Afenifere may not be speaking for the Yoruba nation, but history and posterity will forever be kind to them for denouncing the druggie kingpin of Burdillion Posterity will justify who was right or wrong in the long run. 2 Likes 1 Share |

DadaHammed:God bless you and Afenifere. History will judge you right. All we want is for enlightened Nigerians to try and Know what's at stake & make the best choice for the country. Imagine successive governments stealing the people's resources (crude theft) & looting the treasury at the same time. This fight is between the elite and the masses. They are using tribalism to deceive the gullible & urchins r falling for it. This isn't about tribalism. The criminal political elite in Igboland which includes the governors don't support Obi just like their counterparts in the SW. If Tinubu doesn't rule Nigeria heavens won't fall. When it's SW turn, present a competent and credible candidate and the rest of us will support him/her. This time it's best we vote in Peter Obi. |

Re: Peter Obi Is Our Candidate – Afenifere Replies Akeredolu. by Godfullsam(m): 5:04pm On Oct 11, 2022 |
I just hope peter obi can restructure the country and decentralize power if he become president. Though I have not heard him say anything about restructuring in all his speeches. God will never give power to anyone who doesn't have the plan to restructure the country I don't think anyone can do anything better than Buhari without restructuring. |
