Adeniran is the pioneer Commissioner for Education of Osun State.

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

 

Adeniran is the pioneer Commissioner for Education of Osun State.

 

His resignation comes a few hours after the spokesperson of the group, Mr. Maxwell Adeleye resigned.

 

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

 

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

 

"However, given my irrevocable commitment to the realization 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,” he 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".
