[Edoman]

The spokesman for the pan -Yoruba socio - cultural group, Afenifere, Yinka Odumakin , has carpeted a former Lagos State Governor , Bola Tinubu , for allegedly keeping mute when Fulani herdsmen abducted elder statesman , Olu Falae , and attacked farmers in parts of South -West .
He dismissed Tinubu ’s claims that the South- West was not affected by herdsmen attacks, noting that the marauders had killed people in Yewa , Oke Ogun , Akure , Ekiti and other parts of the region.
Reacting to a statement by Tinubu ’s media aide, Tunde Rahman , in which he said the Afenifere chieftain was suffering from selective amnesia , Odumakin , in a statement on Thursday , accused the All Progressives Congress leader of living in denial .
He said , “Tinubu has maintained a sinful silence as herdsmen launched vicious attacks on the South- West and other sections of the country with thousands of lives lost in the last three years .
“He can play the ostrich all he wants but we know he was mute when herdsmen kidnapped Chief Olu Falae . He could not find his voice when herders killed people in Yewa , Oke Ogun , Akure , Ekiti and the Middle Belt .
“Neither did I hear a word from Tinubu when herdsmen kidnapped and killed a Permanent Secretary in Osun ( where Tinubu and I are from ) . ”
The Afenifere ’s spokesman said Tinubu only postured as a federalist when it suited him, noting that cattle herders as businessmen should apply to state governors for land allocation if they were interested in ranching .
He accused the APC chieftain of launching a personal attack against him .
“I do not intend to take issues with him in all the personal attacks and insinuations of disorder of the mind . Why should I when I know that it is chronic abusers of substance that are more prone to suffer from such ? Thank God I am not one of them ,” Odumakin quipped .
