Afenifere, the Southwest based socio-political group has denied supporting presidential bid of any aspirant for the 2023 presidential election.
This is coming on the heels of a viral statement by the leader of South West Agenda , SWAGA, Prince Dayo Adeyeye, purporting that his group secured support of Afenifere for its candidate during a visit to Pa Ruben Fasoranti, erstwhile Afenifere leader, during the week.
However, Afenifere, in a statement by its Director of Communications, Sola Lawal, stated that the group was still mourning the demise of its late Publicity Secretary, Mr. Yinka Odumakin in whose honour the group suspended all engagements.
Lawal also pointed out that 96- 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 twelve years and so the former couldn’t have spoken for Afenifere during the SWAGA visit to his Akure home.
The group further said it has temporarily halted all activities in honour of Odumakin who is still lying in the morgue, cold and lonely.
