The Yoruba socio-political
organisation, Afenifere, has described Second Republic lawmaker, Dr. Junaid
Mohammed as the “greatest noisemaker from Arewa land.”
Afenifere’s spokesperson, Yinka
Odumakin made the remark in response to Mohammed’s claim that the group was
making provocative comments, hence they were noise makers.
Mohammed had claimed that
Afenifere had not learnt any lesson from the Biafran war, adding that they
would be the first to flee if war breaks out.
He had said: “We have to be very
careful and mind our utterances. It is easy to start a war but it is not easy
to stop it.
“We all saw what happened during
the Biafran war even though a lot of people who went through that experience
have not learnt anything like some of the leaders of Afenifere. They have been
making provocative statements in recent times.
“People’s lives are determined
partly by their culture. These people are noisemakers and if there is war
today, they will run away because most of them have houses outside the country.
They make big, big noise but some of the real fighters who will fight until
death don’t even talk about it.
“We shouldn’t allow these lousy
people to lead us to war. War is not good. I want Nigerians to be careful
because if the chips are down, these people will not be available to fight.
They are calling for war, let the war starts and we will see who will run
first.”
However, Odumakin, in a statement
said: “Dr. Junaid Mohammed is the greatest noise maker from Arewa land.
“What is so pathetic is that his
noise is not rhythmic. He shouts here today and blows there tomorrow. He makes
all manners of reckless comments against other groups without restrains.
“It is unfortunate that a
brilliant person like him is devoting his intellect to negative causes most of
the times”.
