Buhari needs to apologize to the Yorubas - Adeyeye

Minister of State for Works, Prince Adedayo Adeyeye has insisted that the presidential flag bearer of All Progressives Congress, APC, Major General Muhammadu Buhari must apologize to the Yoruba ethnic group over what he tagged as his unrepentant ‘hatred’ for the people.

According to Adeyeye, before the people of Southwest could vote for Buhari, he must tender an unreserved public apology to the people of the zone.

In a statement, which was personally signed by him and made available to the newsmen in Ado Ekiti yesterday, Adeyeye, who reviewed all the programmes and policies of the APC presidential candidate while he was the Head of State and also the chairman of the Petroleum Trust Fund, PTF, said Buhari was number one enemy of the Yoruba.

Adeyeye said, “Buhari did not only cancel the Metroline project, he went ahead to pay what was enough to complete the project as compensation to the French company that handled the project.

“The idea of developing rapid transit in Lagos dated from the 1980s with the Lagos Metroline network conceived by the Alhaji Lateef Jakande during the Second Republic.

“The Metroline project was scrapped in 1985 by Buhari at a loss of over $78m to the Lagos tax payers. Information on the Metroline Project is on Wikipedia for everyone to see.

“If Buhari had not cancelled that project out of hatred for the Yoruba people, transportation in Lagos would have been better than it is now and one can begin to imagine the number of lives and investments that had been lost to Buhari’s wickedness.

“Everything that Awolowo did for us in Yorubaland, Buhari undone. Buhari was even planning to merge the University of Ibadan with Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife when he was removed”.
