A former General Secretary of the pan-Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere, Senator Femi Okurounmu, has accused erstwhile governor of Jigawa State governor, Sule Lamido, and others of trying to impose a Yoruba president of their choice during the June 12, 1993 struggle.
Okurounmu said the North arrogantly believed that if a Yoruba must be president, it must be a Yoruba of their choice, but President Olusegun Obasanjo was the choice of the Yoruba in 1999, contrary to Lamido’s position.
He stated that the mission of the Fulani people is to rule Nigeria forever, and when they cannot do this, they place people in power who would rule according to their advantage.
