Elder statesman, Chief Reuben Fasoranti has stepped down from the position of National Leader of the Pan Yoruba Socio-Political Group, Afenifere.
Pa Fasoranti, aged 95 years disclosed this during the group’s monthly meeting at his residence in Akure, Ondo State capital.
The nonagenarian named the former deputy leader of the group, Chief Ayo Adebanjo as the acting national leader.
Pa Fasoranti disclosed that the decision to step down as the leader of Afenifere was due to the fact that there was a need to improve organisation and combat invasion of culture.
He said his age won’t enable him to accomplish such, only an active leadership can.
