Akintoye’s deputy, spokesperson resign from Ilana Omo Oodua Worldwide

The Deputy Alana of Ilana Omo Oodua Worldwide, the umbrella body of the Yoruba self-determination struggle, Professor Wale Adeniran, has resigned from his position.

Adeniran, who is the pioneer Commissioner for Education of Osun State, resigned from his position, 48 hours after the spokesperson of the group, Maxwell Adeleye, resigned from his position.

Though Adeleye’s resignation was rejected by the Worldwide Executive Council of the self-determination group, he had yet to accept it as of the time of filing this report.

In a letter of resignation, Adeniran, a native of Ile/Ife, Osun State, said notwithstanding his resignation, he shall remain a staunch member of Ilana Omo Oodua.

The two paragraphs letter reads “Dear Professor Banji Akintoye, as a matter of principle, I hereby give notice of my resignation from the position of Deputy Alana, Ilana Omo Oodua Worldwide, with effect from Sunday, November 6, 2022.

“However, given my irrevocable commitment to the realisation of an independent and sovereign Yoruba Nation-state, separate from Nigeria, I hereby affirm that I remain a dedicated and staunch member of our freedom-fighting organization, Ilana Omo Oduduwa,” the letter said.

While Adeniran said he was resigning based on “principle,” Adeleye, said he was resigning based on what “only him, Professor Banji Akintoye and Almighty God knows.”
