By

Following support that the call for the restructuring of Nigeria Federation currently enjoys from prominent Nigerians, the Pan Yoruba Socio-Political Group, Afenifere, has called on the Acting President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, to set process in motion for the implementation of the recommendations of the 2014 National Conference.This call was made in the communique issued at the end of its quarterly meeting held in the Akure residence of its National Leader. The communique was read by Chairman of the Organising Committee of the group, Chief Korede Duyile.The group said that comments made by the former Head of State, Gen Yakubu Gowon (rtd), former President, Goodluck Jonathan and former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, was evidence that more Nigerians were convinced on the restructuring need of the country. Afenifere condemned the bloodshed perpetuated by the herdsmen, while viewing the federal government’s indifference to the matter as worrisome. The group noted that if the situation was not addressed, it could lead to more problems for the country, as people who are being attacked might resort to self-help as defense.Afenifere also called on the Federal Character Commission to address the issue of alleged lopsidedness in the appointment into security agencies.
