[JUST IN]: Igboho tells Tinubu to rein in Shettima over Badenoch Criticism

Chief Sunday Adeyemo, a prominent Yoruba nation activists popularly known as Sunday Igboho, on Sunday, enjoined President Bola Tinubu to caution his Vice President (Kashim Shettima) over his recent criticism of the leader of the British Conservative Party, Kemi Badenoch.

Shettima had allegedly rebuked Badenoch for her harsh remarks about corruption in Nigeria, as well as her assertion of her Yoruba heritage and her rejection of being associated with Northern Nigeria.

However, in a press statement personally signed by Igboho, the activist urged Tinubu to caution Shettima against launching verbal attacks on the leader of the UK Conservative Party for emphasising her true identity as a member of the Yoruba ethnic group and expressing her views on corruption, which is the scourge of development in the country.

Igboho said, “It is incumbent on President Bola Tinubu, who is also from the Yoruba ethnic nationality and lineage, to direct Shettima to face his duties as vice president rather than dissipate energy or engage in verbal war against Badenoch, who merely expressed her candid but true opinion on the pervasive corruption in Nigeria’s system.”

“When the immediate past President Muhammadu Buhari was in power, nobody dared launch offensive or verbal attacks against his Fulani ethnic nationality without being dealt with or muzzled through the instrumentality of the state or paying the highest price.”

“It is on record that because of my agitation against the wanton destruction of farmlands in the Southwest and other parts of the country, killing of farmers, and fatuous sexual violations of their daughters and wives by rampaging Fulani herders, which characterised Buhari’s administration, security agents, on his order, stormed my residence on July 1, 2021, gruesomely shot dead two persons, and arrested about 13 others.”

“Nigerians are facing incredibly tough times, struggling with extreme poverty, harsh economic policies, and rampant insecurity, including kidnapping. Despite these challenges, the Federal Government seems to be struggling to find effective solutions. Instead of addressing these pressing issues, the Vice President Kashim Shettima is busy criticizing Kemi Badenoch, the leader of the UK Conservative Party, for her comments about Nigeria.

“When has it become a sin for someone to express his or her opinion or say the obvious about how corruption has retarded the growth of Nigeria as a nation or proclaiming her true identity as a member of the Yoruba ethnic group? The Vice President should concentrate his energy on the performance of his duties rather than chasing shadows through his invective on Kemi Badenoch.”

He concluded by saying; “It is high time President Bola Tinubu called his VP Shettima to order now to desist from needless verbal attacks and face his duties as the vice president of the country,”
