Afenifere spokesman, Yinka Odumakin, is dead

Yinka Odumakin, National Publicity Secretary of the pan-Yoruba group, Afenifere, is dead, TOTORI NEWS has learnt.

He died at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital Covid Isolation Centre.

He played a major role in the National Democratic Coalition that fought the regime of late military head of state, General Sani Abacha, after the annulment of the June 12, 1993 election.

The late Afenifere spokesman, amongst other things, canvassed the ideas of restructuring, fiscal federalism, decentralised policing as solutions to the country’s socio-economic challenges.

Just before his death, he consistently condemned the activities of criminal Fulani herdsmen, who have been accused of farmland destruction, rape, killings and abductions in the South-West.
