The leader of the Pan-Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, on Monday, said failure to vote the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, in the forthcoming election will land the country in trouble.

Adebanjo, who stated this in a chat with newsmen, lauded the recent endorsement of Obi by former President Olusegun Obasanjo.

The elder statesman insisted the decision of the group was in keeping with the principle of power shift guiding the country since its return to democracy.

Speaking on the recent endorsement, Adebanjo said it was wrong for another Northerner to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in May.

He also maintained there was no justification for the APC Presidential Candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to contest when Obasanjo, from the South-West was President for eight years.
