Leading agitator for the Yoruba Nation, Professor Banji Akintoye, has unveiled an anti-kidnapping App that can save the people, even as he remains in exile in Benin Republic.
He inspired hope of Yoruba technological renewal in Ibadan, Oyo State, where the App was unveiled.
In Yoruba language, pajawiri means emergency.
In a statement presented by Akintoye’s spokesman, Maxwell Adeleye, he said:
“We have now proven to the world that we cannot be captured nor be subdued. We are too intellectually sophisticated to be subdued.
“It is these innovations and intellectual powers that we will deploy to get ourselves out of the quagmires of Nigeria.
“Those in possession of the ‘Pajawiri’ app on their telephone, will be able to activate the app instantly, whenever they find themselves in danger. By activating the app, they will be able to alert their families, their friends and their neighbours that they are in danger and that they need help.
“In that way, no Yoruba person needs to be alone anywhere on their farms, schools, market places, shops and anywhere else. Any person who finds himself threatened by danger and who is in possession of Pajawiri will be able to alert other persons for help.”
