The Yoruba Socio-Cultural organisation, Afenifere, on Sunday called for the removing and prosecution of Adams Oshiomhole, National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, over his recent inflammatory remark.

Afenifere’s spokesperson, Yinka Odumakin made the decision in an unique chat with Ireportnews while condemning the inflammatory remark through Oshiomhole over the Supreme Court ruling on Bayelsa State governorship election.

Recall that the Supreme Court had on Thursday sacked David Lyon of the APC as Governor-Elect of Bayelsa State whilst stating Douye Diri of the Peoples Democratic Celebration, PDP, winner of the election.

Displeased by the ruling, Oshiomhole had vowed that no one would be sworn-in as governor of Bayelsa State.

The APC National Chairman had anchored his threats on the truth that Lyon had the perfect number of votes during the election.

Regardless of Oshiomhole’s threat, the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, had on Friday declared Diri winner of the election and issued him the Certificates of Return.

The ruling, however, led to a few angry youths within the state attacking PDP and Diri’s homes in the state.

According to the Afenifere spokesperson, only an irresponsible organisation will permit Oshiomhole to proceed main them after making such an inflammatory remark.
