Chief Bisi Akande, former interim national chairman of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) and former governor of Osun State, made the
observation recently in Abeokuta, while speaking at the first inaugural
Dauda Adegbenro Foundation Memorial Lecture in honour of the late Chief
Dauda Adegbenro, former premier of defunct Western Region.
In his speech, entitled: Adegbenro Fought Against Regimes of
Impunity, Akande alleged that Nigeria, with Jonathan as leader, was
back under a regime of impunity where the president imposed leaders on
states as he wished.
“No government has ever disrespected the Yoruba like the Jonathan
administration. But, it is yet morning because a few of us, with our
followers, are resolved to continue the struggle for a just and
democratic Nigeria, importantly, though, for a Yoruba nation that can
stand up against discrimination, nepotism and power tyranny,” Akande
said.
He alleged that part of the strategy Jonathan employed and which
further reinforced his ingratitude was the use of divisive propaganda to
cause disaffection among ethnic nationalities in Nigeria.
The former governor also described the Jonathan administration as that of impunity and tyranny.
He traced the origin of imposition of leaders on states by federal
authorities to the crisis that engulfed the Western Region in the 1960s
