The Yoruba Agenda for proper
restructuring is not about secession, but remains sine qua non for
progress and development in our country.
Former Governor Ogun State, Otunba
Gbenga Daniel stated this at the The Yoruba Summit on restructuring
held at Adamasingba Stadium, Ibadan on Thursday.
In his speech at the occasion, Otunba
Daniel said the summit marks a watershed in the history of Nigeria's
political evolution as people from all walks of life were ably
represented and spoke with one voice.
This, according to him, was a clear
signal that the cry for proper restructuring of our dear country is
an idea whose time has come.
"The last constitutional
conference inspired by the last PDP administration should have been
the first step towards constitutional conference and restructuring by
extension.
A unique aspect of this meeting is the
unprecedented presence of our brothers from the Eastern flank. Their
massive presence here today signal the the most desired handshake
across the Benue propounded several years ago by our late sage Chief
Obafemi Awolowo. We thank them for their solidarity", he said.
"The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) stands firmly by the aspirations of our people today which
incidentally have become a national agenda", he concluded.
