The Dr. Fredrick Fasehun-led Oodua People’s Congress, OPC has appointed a new president to lead the group.
At a conference in Lagos yesterday, the new President, Comrade Dare Adesope, said the development became imperative to harmonise all the members.
Adesope said he would liaise with other factions of OPC to actualise the Oodua agenda.
“I will work with other OPC leaders, Yoruba elders and other prominent Nigerian leaders who have been supporting the Oodua cause”, he assured.
Announcing the new leadership, Comrade Godwin James said the group acknowledges the input of Faseun who had led the organisation since it was founded 20 years ago.
“In view of all these, we the leaders of the organisation across the nation met and unanimously choose a vibrant and resourceful youth who has served at all levels to bring the desired positive changes to OPC.”
“There is unity between our group and that of Otunba Gani Adams in piloting the affairs of the Yoruba nation. We are still under Dr. Fasehun who is the founder of OPC; he would have been here at this meeting but he was unavoidably absent,” said the official.
