Yoruba Elders Say They Regret Voting For Buhari


Yoruba elders say they regret voting for Muhammadu Buhari during Nigeria's last presidential election.

According to NIGERIAN PILOT, the leaders are particularly angry with Buhari over the recently concluded National Assembly elections, which they feel was a big blow to the South west.

One of the Elders who spoke to newsmen anonymously said, ''For the fact that the South-West played a key role in the emergence of Buhari as the President, it is expected that they would occupy a more strategic position than the post of vice president''.

They argued that the position of Professor Yemi Osinbanjo, the current vice president, who is a South west indigene is not a powerful position.

Chief Ayo Opadokun, a South-West leader noted that the Yoruba race made a great mistake by not re-electing former president Goodluck Jonathan, considering what he had in stock for the zone.
