Afenifere, a Pan-Yoruba socio-political group, has announced that Nigeria is bleeding in many places as a result of the numerous issues it faces.
Afenifere said in a communiqué published at the conclusion of its meeting in Ogbo-Ijebu, the residence of its leader, Pa Ayo Adebanjo, that it was ready to meet with stakeholders to discuss restructuring, devolution of power, and real federalism.
The communiqué reads: “Afenifere observes that going by the rate at which terrorism and related vices are spreading, the Nigeria nation is bleeding in many parts. There is the need by the federal government to urgently put a halt to various acts of terrorism, kidnapping, the herders/farmers clashes and the like.
“This, the Federal Government can do, by immediately allowing states to have their police. Security apparatus should be democratised to the local level.”
“Given the challenging situations we face, Afenifere calls for, indeed actually ready for meetings of stakeholders where the issues of restructuring, devolution of power, true federalism would be firmed up.
“The outcome of such deliberations is to be passed into law and be made operational immediately.
“It is a matter of interest that the President said that he is now favourably disposed to restructuring. We urge him to send a bill to the National Assembly on it immediately after the planned deliberations by the stakeholders in the country.
“Afenifere strongly holds the position that the above that is restructuring should be done before the next elections in the country.
“In the meantime, every community must be at alert to realise that they must defend themselves from bandits who seem to have declared war on Nigeria.”
