PRESIDENT OF AFENIFERE, CHIEF AYO ADEBANJO, OHANEZE NDIGBO AND BARR. AFE BABALOLA HAVE COME OUT BOLDLY TO SAY THAT NIGERIA NEEDS TO BE RESTRUCTURED

President of Afenifere, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, his Ohanaeze Ndigbo counterpart, Nnia Nwodo and Aare Afe Babalola (SAN) yesterday insisted on restructuring of the country.

They urged Nigerians to persuade National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to prevail on President Muhammadu Buhari to urgently restructure the country to save it from imminent collapse.

Arguing that fresh developments in the country indicated that President Buhari was oblivious of happenings around him, they said he does not really understand the enormity of challenges facing the country.

They spoke at the maiden Goke Omisore Voice of Reason (VOR) Annual Lecture titled, “Restructuring: Building A Knowledge Based Society,” in Lagos.

Adebanjo was quoted saying, “The Head of State is too illiterate to understand good leadership. You have to change this government to be effective, no matter the economic or political programme, without good leadership, the country cannot move forward.
