The last, no doubt, has not been heard about the autobiography of Chief Bisi Akande, former governor of Osun State.
The controversial book, My Participations, is currently raising a lot of dusts across the country.
Earlier, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, the leader of the pan-Yoruba socio-cultural group, Afenifere, had in an interview on Arise Television called Akande a pathological liar.
The latest is Chief Bode George, former National Vice Chairman (South) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The current leader of PDP in Lagos State, practically called on Akande, the first National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to withdraw the book, which he described as “shameful” and promptly apologise to Yoruba elders.

In the 500-page book, Akande, had spared no words to attack former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, Leader of Afenifer, Ayo Adebanjo and his successor in office, Olagunsoye Oyinlola, whom he indicted in one way or the other.
“Akande must apologise openly to Yoruba elders. The attitude that he displayed is not acceptable in a civilised society. Is it his legacy to dishonour Yoruba elders? Bode George said.
“At his age, Akande should not set his house on fire because of Tinubu’s ambition. I felt very bad as a Yoruba man and as a Nigerian. He has maligned Yoruba elders and highly respectable people in the country.
“He was busy giving kudos to Bola Tinubu. Baba Akande is from Osun State and Tinubu is the only man that he could single out to praise.
“From the reaction to his book, you must have heard what Baba Adebanjo said. How are we going to be regarded by others? Is that the right thing to do?
“Baba Akande should withdraw the book that he has authored. It is very shameful. He is older than me and I don’t expect an elderly person to behave in that manner. He must apologise to those he has offended.”
