Gani Adams To Herdsmen: Leave South West Immediately Or…

The Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland, Iba Gani Adams, has read the riot act to criminal herdsmen perpetrating atrocities in the Southwest.

Adams asked the herdsmen to leave the region immediately as their excesses and nefarious activities will no longer be condoned and will be met with vehement opposition.

Adam’s warning is coming in the wake of the herdsmen invasion of professor Wole Soyinka property.

In a statement by his spokesman on Thursday, He said the encroachment was a threat to the privacy of the Nobel laureate.

He warned that refusal to comply with the directive would incur the wrath of the Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC).

The Yoruba leader said the encroachment was a threat to the privacy of the Nobel laureate.

Adams said reports available to him from Southwest states have it that criminal herdsmen have migrated from Ibarapa in Oyo State to Yewa in Ogun State.

The Aare said this had increased the spate of insecurity, stressing that the activities of criminal Fulani herdsmen had become unbearable.

Adams wondered why President Muhammadu Buhari has been indifference about the security situation in the Southwest.

“We thank God that the recent encroachment on Prof’s residence failed. The fundamental problem in this country is that we have a President that seems to be complacent on serious issues.

“It is in our own interest to continue to raise our voices against the unprecedented threats to the southwest region.”

The Aare advised Southwest governors to boost the recruitment of OPC, Vigilante and Hunters in Amotekun to further strengthen the security outfit.

Adams appealed to the Lagos State Government to inaugurate Amotekun as soon as possible, adding that delay was dangerous.
