Leader of Afenifere, Pa Ayo Adebanjo says there is no personal enmity between himself and President Bola Tinubu.
Adebanjo, 95, said that Tinubu is his son whom he only disagrees with politically.
The Afenifere leader said this at an event in Lagos on Tuesday.
He said that his disagreement with the president has always been about how to steer the nation toward a better future, noting that Tinubu has never failed to grant any favour he asked of him.
Adebanjo maintained that the 1999 Constitution is flawed and cannot set the nation on the path of unity and prosperity.
“Anybody should be concerned about the unity of this country, about the progress of this country. Don’t tell me about any economic programme.
“Until you change this constitution, you go nowhere. And I urge you, I beseech you, anybody who is a nationalist, who loves this country today, particularly Bola Tinubu.
“I’m happy Professor Bolaji Akinyemi is here. You are Tinubu’s friend. I’m not his enemy. He is my son. The only difference is that we disagree politically.
“He is a loving young man. I have never asked for a favour that he has not given me. But the issue is, the question of Nigeria to be together,” Adebanjo said.
