You will regret voting Buhari-- Okunrounmu tells Yoruba

Senator Femi Okunrounmu has predicted that the Yoruba will regret voting President Muhammadu Buhari.Okunrounmu, who was the Chairman of the defunct Presidential Advisory Committee on National Conference, said  that recent appointments had showed that Buhari was out to implement the Northern agenda.

He said, “As a Yoruba man, I am very uncomfortable with this (appointments). Buhari has a reputation for ethnic bias and when we said it during the election, they said we were lying.

“Clearly, his body language and the body language of all his lieutenants show that they are not keen on implementing the resolutions of the conference.

“However, in spite of that, those of us who believe it is the panacea to the problems of this nation shall not stop putting pressure on the President and all other organs of government to let them see that this is the way forward.

“The change the APC was talking about meant two different things. The APC in the North saw change as an opportunity to return power to the region while those in the South-West were looking for genuine social change. At the end, the North just used the South-West to get into Aso Rock and now we are regretting it.”

Okunrounmu, further lamented that important appointments had already been made, as no other appointment could be more powerful than the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.
