The Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yorubaland, Gani Adams, has said the Yorubas in Nigeria’s south-west now want self-determination, as a way of moving the country forward.
Mr Adams spoke Wednesday at a public presentation of the book ‘Roundtable Discussions on Economy and Restructuring in Nigeria’ organised by the National Pilot Newspaper in Lagos.
He said recent events unfolding in the south-west have made him reluctant to continue pushing for restructuring.
Many believe we (Yorubas) have moved from restructuring to self-determination and that is so, Mr Adams said.
“I support the popular view of the Yoruba that we have graduated from the restructuring that we have been clamouring for since 1991 to self-determination.
