THE CABLE
Afenifere, the Yoruba socio-political organisation, has suspended two of its national officers for issuing an “unauthorised statement” against Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu.
The affected officers are Jare Ajayi, the national publicity secretary, and Abagun Kole Omololu, national organising secretary.
The organisation issued the directive in a communiqué released at the end of its monthly general meeting, on Tuesday.
The communiqué was signed by Ayo Adebanjo, Afenifere leader, and Sola Ebiseni, secretary-general.
BACKGROUND
Last Saturday, Iwuanyanwu, chairman of the council of elders, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, said there is no fight between the Igbo and Yoruba people in the country.
He added that those destroying Igbo properties in Lagos were “political rascals”.
