The leader of the umbrella body of Yoruba Nation Self Determination Struggle, Emeritus Prof. Banji Akintoye, has condemned the early Sunday morning invasion of Amuludun FM Radio at Moniya, Ibadan, by some persons suspected to be members of the Yoruba Nation agitators.
Akintoye in a statement Sunday evening described the invasion as ” criminal and breach of public peace.”
In the statement made available by his Assistant Director of Programmes, Olatunde Amusat, Akintoye further said the action was “lawless and profoundly criminal.”
Part of the statement reads further; “The attention of the Yoruba Self Determination Movement has been drawn to the activities of a group led by a Woman that has claimed to be running a totally different agenda for Yoruba emancipation and that has been engaging
again and again in criminal activity.
“The group has been warned repeatedly, but has refused to change,”
Akintoye, a Senator in Second Republic asserted.
“The Yoruba Self Determination led by me runs a struggle that is totally peaceful and law abiding.
“we have even written a thirty-four page manual to guide our followers and all Yoruba people about peaceful and law abiding self determination struggle.
“We have written to the outgoing President of Nigeria and to the Secretary General of the United Nations about our legitimate demand for self determination for our Yoruba nation.
“We have emphasised in everyone of those letter that our struggle is peaceful and law abiding.
“We have no relationship whatsoever with the group that has repeatedly engaged in crime and we have no hands in their criminal conduct.”
