“Tinubu Called For Revolution Against Jonathan” – Afenifere

President Bola Tinubu has received a warning from the pan-Yoruba socio-political group Afenifere to stop abdicating responsibility for the #Endhungerprotest against his administration.

Afenifere cautioned Tinubu that he shouldn’t assign blame right away because he called for a revolution against former President Goodluck Jonathan.

The president’s speech, according to Prince Justice Fakiyesi, National Publicity Secretary of the Afenifere group, which is allied with Chief Ayo Adebanjo, the Acting Leader, did not address the actual causes of the country’s hunger.

Read the statement below…

“It is the same thing that happened under former President Goodluck Jonathan and he (Tinubu) called for a revolution or protest and when he is facing the same thing and even worse, he is blaming other people.

“We never believed that just calling for dialogue would change anything. He has never changed.

“I think he was pushed to read the speech because it was not a matter of dialogue or him addressing people about the exact policy that brought hunger and since he is not willing to reverse or accept responsibility, because he more or less said it was politically motivated.

“When he started, and he specifically said that subsidy is dead, he said you can protest as much as you like. He said that. He knew that his policies were going to bring protest. At his age he knows that there have been all sorts of protests against subsidy removal.”

A Gentle Reminder: Every obstacle is a stepping stone, every morning; a chance to go again, and those little steps take you closer to your dream.
