Apapo Oodua Koya, (AOKOYA), a Yoruba self determination coalition, has blamed current clamour for military takeover in Nigeria on Misrule and mis governance of the immediate past administration of President Mohammadu Buhari.

The coalition however warned that any military coup in Nigeria now will lead to organized armed resistance in the South West.

Col Abimbola Sowunmi (rtd) one of the leaders of the coalition, made the remarks in a statement issued after the group’s meeting in Ibadan, Oyo state.

The group said it has noticed the statements of some Nigerian  leaders aimed at preparing the mood of the country for a military coup.

“We want to assure anyone contemplating a coup that there will be armed resistance to such a plot.

“Intelligence analysis indicated that former President Mohammadu Buhari set several obstacles and landmines with the aim of creating chaos that would bring back the military after his exit, the exact thing Shehu Shagari did in 1983 and Ibrahim Babangida did it 1993.

“They are aware that given the balance of military infrastructure, military coup will always favour the Fulani North.

“Buhari created avenues to armed Fulani to invade Middle Belt and Southern forests. This is a Fulani agenda to take over the country.

“They created armed Fulani militia to checkmate Boko Haram in the scramble for Nigeria and also for Fulani armed men to be better placed to overrun Nigeria completely.

“This was backed by draconian economic policies like the sudden removal of oil subsidy which he implemented before he handed over power and the printing of Naira notes all aimed at plunging the post-Buhari years into economic and political turmoil and anarchy that would justify military intervention.”

The group said the plot is backed by mass kidnapping of children across the country to further fuel the conditions for military intervention.

AOKOYA pointed out that the country is passing through blood, death, misery and anguish, but that any coup at this time can only favour the Caliphate even though the plotters might use a Southerner as ring leader to delude the people.

“The military is currently controlled by the Fulani North. Even though the Chief of Army Staff is Yoruba, the commanding height, the structure and superstructure, the distribution of arms and ordinance remain skewed in favour of Fulani.

“This is why the idea of a coup is being floated. But we want to assure them that this time, they will meet more than they bargained for.”

AOKOYA maintained that “the voracious theft of public funds under Buhari was an attempt to use the stolen funds to create confusion and sponsor anarchy in tye post Buhari years.

“They are jittery of state police and restructuring  yet they fail to realize that the reality of Nigeria’s breakup is inevitable mainly due to the historic injustice they have imposed on Nigerians since 1960, no thanks to British manipulation to ensure Nigeria remains in the hands of the most backward and reactionary segment of Nigerian ethnic configuration.”

AOKOYA said its position has nothing to do with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who it described as someone who already constantly treats the Yoruba with disdain, contempt and views Yoruba self determination with cruel hatred.

“Our position has nothing to do with Tinubu who is a loyal agent of the Nigerian political hegemony. Our position is driven by the knowledge that any military coup at this time will undermine free speech, destroy the gains of the past years, stifle self determination calls and again hand over the political economy of Nigeria to the hands of Fulani military class.”
