Omololu said the visit to Bode George was commendable and reasonable as it showed the promotion of unity among Yoruba sons and daughters.

According to him, a united Yoruba land, irrespective of political persuasions would have a tremendous effect “in achieving the desired goal of a true federation, devolution of power, state police and fiscal federalism.”

He said, “We in Afenifere, we are very delighted about the visit of the elders in the land to one of the elders in the (Chief George, the Atona of the source – Ile Ife). The elders saw it as an aberration for two prominent Yoruba sons to be having misunderstanding and the elders in the land to be folding arms and be watching and doing nothing.”

“So we want to commend the efforts of these Yoruba leaders and elders who deem it fit to pay Chief George a visit on this matter and we certainly hope that the laudable visit would be fruitful and beneficial to the entire Yoruba land.”
