The Afenifere leader wondered where the DSS was when threats were made against a section of this country in Lagos and the threats later executed without preventing it or even arresting anyone till date.
While condemning the DSS for causing panic within the nation rather than taking action, following its statement on a potential uprising that may lead to an interim government, Pa Adebanjo said “The announcement is suspect.”
“They (DSS) have an agenda they have not told us. My view is that it’s an attempt to arrest leaders of the opposition who are trying to do protests, which is constitutional.”
“If you see anybody who wants to do anything anti-government, produce the facts and charge them to court,” he challenged the DSS.
Speaking on the purported faction in Afenifere, the nonagenarian stated categorically that there were no factions and explained that Afenifere is a political party ab initio, not just a socio-political group in the western region.
