A Yoruba group, a promoter of Oduduwa Republic has launched the currency.
The image of the currency which is known as “FADAKA, was posted on Twitter via the group’s handle, @OduduwaRepublic, on Sunday.
“Oduduwa National Currency shall be called ‘FADAKA’ Meaning Silver .. or short as just ‘FAD’ Here is a 20 Fadaka Sample Banknote,” the secessionist group tweeted.
This was after Yoruba Historian, Banji Akintoye and activist, Sunday Igboho declared sovereignty of the Yoruba during the passing week.
Akintoye and Igboho, among other Yoruba leaders, said that the South West was no longer under Nigeria.
They had insisted that this was not a time to talk about restructuring, resource control or a new constitution but rather the Yoruba to secede from Nigeria.
They called on people of the region to work together for the independence of the Yoruba nation.
