Ogun – Pan Yoruba socio – cultural group Afenifere has called for immediate restructuring of the country “through the adoption of the Reports of the 2014 National Conference and the 2018 Mallam El-Rufai Committee of the APC on true federalism.”

The group made the call in a communique issued at the end of its meeting at Isanya Igbo, Ogun State on Tuesday, January 25.

It, however, said that both reports should be subjected to desirable modifications where necessary.”

The group suggested that the restructuring be done before the coming 2023 general elections.

Afenifere said that while it was obvious that the country had never met the dream of its founding fathers, the situation had never been this bad socially, economically and politically for the citizens.

” The meeting felt that one of the things that have been a great clog in the wheel of Nigeria’s progress today was the rubbishing of true federalism.

“Meaning that true federalism must be allowed to be effectively operational immediately.

“In other words, States and Local Government Councils must be allowed to enjoy self-governance as provided for them in the Constitution,” the communique said.

It also bemoaned the security situation in the country, saying that no part of the country was safe at any time of the day anymore

Afenifere called on President Muhammadu Buhari to approve the establishment of state police to enhance security of life and property.

“The performance of Amotekun Security Network in the South-West in conjunction with the Nigeria Police has shown clearly that all the criticisms against State Police were unfounded and self-serving.

Afenifere also at its meeting deliberated on the continued incarceration of the Yoruba activist, Chief Sunday Adeyemo popularly called Sunday Igboho, describing him as a Prisoner of Conscience.

It called on “all men and women of conscience, particularly the international community to which human rights and freedom are abiding faith, to prevail on the Governments of Nigeria and Benin Republic to release Sunday Igboho forthwith.

“Not only that, but the Federal Government should also pay Sunday Igboho the damages awarded to him by the court upon the savage attack on his person and property.

“The meeting also called on the Federal Government to release Nnamdi Kanu even if on political consideration as happened in the case of Asari Dokubo under the then President Olusegun Obasanjo,” the group demanded. (vitalnews)
