The Pan Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere, still mourning the death of his spokesman, Yinka Odumakin, has said it has no hand in the presidential bid of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu or any aspirant for the 2023 election.

Afenifere, while reacting to a viral statement by the leader of South West Agenda, SWAGA, Senator Dayo Adeyeye, insinuating that his group secured the support of Afenifere for its candidate during a visit to Pa Ruben Fasoranti, erstwhile Afenifere leader on Tuesday.

The Pan Yoruba group, in a statement on Wednesday by its Director of Communications, Sola Lawal, stated that the group was still mourning the demise of Mr Odumakin.

The pan Yoruba group has announced the suspension of all engagements in honour of the deceased.

Lawal pointed out that 94-year-old Pa Fasoranti has taken a “deserved rest when he formally handed over to Chief Ayo Adebanjo three weeks ago after leading the group for 12 years and so the former couldn’t have spoken for Afenifere during the SWAGA visit to his Akure home.

“The Adeyeye foray into Afenifere space at this period of huge loss and intense mourning is disrespectful, insensitive and unwarranted.

“Being a former Afenifere top-notch and, infact, Odumakin’s immediate predecessor in office as the spokesperson for Afenifere, Adeyeye should cease all activities and join us in mourning at these trying times.”
