Publicity Secretary, Yoruba Unity Forum and former Secretary-General, Yoruba Council of Elders, Dr. Kunle Olajide, speaks on the perceived marginalisation of the Yoruba, nationhood, federalism and more in this interview with AKINWALE ABOLUWADE
The Yoruba Leadership Forum is crying foul over the perceived marginalisation of the South-West. What warranted this?
The bone of contention is that we sincerely believe that injustice in any part of the country is injustice in Nigeria. If any section of Nigeria is treated unjustly, it is injustice to Nigeria. We believe that we have been treated unjustly by the present administration. We have been deprived of political and career appointments even in the ministries, departments and agencies. What appears to be a systematic elimination of Yoruba race has continued to worry us. This was why we had to shout and bring it to the open that the injustice must not be allowed to continue.
