“Why I stepped down as Yoruba Nation leader – Akintoye”
Prof. Banji Akinoye has given reasons why he stepped down as the leader of the apex body of the Yoruba self-determination struggle, Ilana Omo Oodua Worldwide.
Akintoye has handed the baton of leadership to his former Deputy, Prof. Wale Adeniran, citing old age and a weakened body system as his reasons.
But in a letter addressed to Adeniran and sighted by our correspondent on Thursday, Akintoye explained that he did not resign from the position to evade responsibility over the crisis rocking the self-determination group.
