Former SGF Olu Falae Takes Over as Afenifere Leader

Afenifere, a Pan Yoruba socio-political organization, has named Oba Olu Falae, the Olu of Ilu-Abo in the Akure North council area of Ondo State and a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), as the head of its National Executive Committee.
Following its monthly gathering at the home of its national head, Pa Reuben Fasoranti, in Akure, the organization also voiced worries about insecurity and other problems facing the nation, as well as the necessity of national restructuring.
Following the meeting, National Publicity Secretary Jare Ajayi told the media that Falae was appointed by Fasoranti, the group’s national leader.

The purpose of this appointment, Ajayi reiterated, is to realign the organization.
In order to ensure that the House of Oduduwa is realigned to support the Yoruba agenda, Oba Falae’s appointment is meant to revitalize the organization, he said.

In addition to holding other significant positions, the new Chairman, Oba Falae, was previously the Secretary to the Government of the Federation at the time. A number of issues facing the country today were discussed at the conference.

We have determined that restructuring is the most effective strategy for addressing the problems after putting these concerns through numerous, intense interrogations.

As a result, we are urging the National Assembly and the Federal Government, led by President Bola Tinubu, to initiate the process of restructuring the nation immediately,” Ajayi stated.

Expressing gratitude to Fasoranti for his appointment, Falae pledged to bring all the groups in Afenifere together.

“We will be able to unite all the other groups, with God’s grace and the help of Afenifere and the Yoruba nation.”

“I want to do everything in my power to unite all Afenifere factions during Papa’s lifetime,” he declared.

Speaking as well, Apagun Kole Omololu, the group’s National Organising Secretary, promised that Falae, the recently chosen chairman, would bring the group back together.
