The apex Yoruba socio-cultural organisation, Afenifere, turns 70 today amid the spate of banditry, kidnapping and insecurity nationwide, which it said compelled it to reschedule its plan for the anniversary.
Consequently, it directed Muslim members and well-wishers to observe worships on Friday, in mosques, while the Christian counterparts were enjoined to attend service at designated churches determined by state chapters on Sunday.
The group, in a statement by its Deputy Leader, Oba Oladipo Olaitan, yesterday, said while its 70th anniversary called for a grand celebration as already scheduled, the nation’s mood, in view of the worsening and pervasive insecurity, had marred its plans to commemorate the birth of progressivism in the South-west.
