Afenifere has denied supporting the presidential bid of\u00a0 Bola Tinubu, or any aspirant for the 2023 presidential election.<\/div>\n

The leader of South West Agenda, Prince Dayo Adeyeye had claimed that\u00a0 his group secured the support of Afenifere for Tinubu during a visit to Pa Reuben Fasoranti, erstwhile Afenifere leader, on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

However, Afenifere denied endorsing any candidate in a statement by its Director of Communications, Sola Lawal, titled, \u2018Afenifere denies endorsing presidential aspirant\u2019, on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Lawal also pointed out that 96-year-old Pa Fasoranti had taken a \u201cdeserved 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\u2019t have spoken for Afenifere during the SWAGA visit to his Akure home.\u201d<\/p>\n

The group further said it has \u201ctemporarily halted all activities in honour of Odumakin who is still lying in the morgue, cold and lonely\u201d.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThe Adeyeye foray into Afenifere space at this period of huge loss and intense mourning is disrespectful , insensitive and unwarranted,\u201d Lawal added.<\/p>\n

Lawal stated that the group is still mourning the demise of its Publicity Secretary, Mr. Yinka Odumakin, in whose honour the group suspended all engagements.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
