Our attention has been drawn to the above fake news report making rounds on social media and being carried by some reputable media Organisations as well.

There is no Committee of Southwest Leaders headed by Gen. Alani Akinrinade (Rtd) in existence at all, not to talk of it making effort to convince the National Leader of All Progressives’ Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to step down for the Vice President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo’s aspiration because it will be win win for both of them at the end of the day.

While we commend any good move to bring our Southwest Political Gladiators together in love, especially all open and rumoured Presidential Aspirants in Yorubaland, it is also important that such move must be balance, objective, consultative and highly acceptable to the generality of People.

Therefore, we must at this stage recognize various reconciliation efforts that have commenced before now, from various Groups and Individuals, most especially from traditional sector, which is led by our 2 highly respected Royal fathers, Oba Lamidi Olayiwola Adeyemi III, JP, CFR, LLD, and Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi Ojaja II, Alaafin of Oyo and Ooni of Ife respectively.

To this regards, we Yoruba Youths, after due consultation with Elders, have come up today with this proposed Yoruba Unity Agenda Committee list to bring together in love the following Yoruba open and romoured Aspirants, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Governor Kayode Fayemi, Senator Ibikunle Amosun and Pastor Tunde Bakare ahead of May 29 APC Presidential Primary

The Committee members: Gen Alani Akinrinade (Rtd) (Yoruba Assembly), Alaafin of Oyo, Ooni of Ife, Archbishop Ayo Ladigbolu (Yoruba Unity Forum), Dr Kunle Olajide (Yoruba Council of Elders), Prof Bolanle Awe (Yoruba Elders, Women folk), Prince Tajudeen Olusi (Yoruba Elders, men folk), Comrade Awa Bamiji (Yoruba Youths)

The Yoruba Unity Agenda meeting will be convened in Ibadan, Southwest Political Headquarters, in few days to come but the venue and date won’t be disclosed until when the Communique of the meeting is ready to be made Public in the interest of peace within the Yorubaland and to douse the tension.

Odu’a a gbewa o!
