The meeting also had in attendance its National Secretary, Otunba Adegbenro Ogunlana and other representatives of the society from Ogun, Osun, Ondo, Oyo, Ekiti, Kwara, Kogi and Lagos states, according to Vanguard.

He said,

“It was generally and anonymously agreed upon that Afenifere is no longer representing the interest of the Yoruba.

”Their faith was tested and they failed woefully during the 2015 general election when Agbekoya supported and stood by this present government and they won with support from our farmers.

“But presently, we’re yet to decide on whom to support. Very soon we will make our stand known to the public.
