" No More Herdsmen" – Sunday Igboho Faces Soldiers, Police Officers [Video]

Sunday Igboho has reiterated his position that Fulani herdsmen must leave Oyo State.

The Yoruba activist made the declaration to a team of soldiers and policemen.

Well, in a video clip obtained on Saturday, 23rd January, Igboho told the security agents he would not back down on his demand.

“I don’t want any herdsman in the whole land. C’est fini! (it is finished)”, he asserted.

Igboho might be apprehended anytime soon, going by orders given to the police by the federal and Oyo governments.

On 15th, January, he ordered Fulanis in Igangan, a community in Ibarapa North Local Government Area, to leave the State.

He blamed them for the spate of murders and abductions in recent months. He stormed the area again on Friday.

His comments and actions have generated diverse reactions across the country.

Reacting to the arrest order, the Senior Pastor of Awaiting The Second Coming of Christ Ministry, Adewale Giwa, called for restraint.

The man of God, who said Igboho’s arrest “will hasten the disintegration of Nigeria”, accused President Buhari of shielding the Fulani “while they continue to kill our people”.

“Why didn’t IGP arrest Miyetti Allah and their representatives in Abuja? Sunday Igboho is doing the right thing for the entire Yoruba nation”, Giwa added.

Andon the other hand, Former Aviation Minister and presidential aide, Femi Fani-Kayode, spoke in a similar vein.

He advised the federal government to thread softly, noting that Igboho has the full support of the Yoruba.

In his words...

“When the Northern youths demanded that Igbos should leave the North, no one was arrested.

“Kill Igboho and you make him a martyr for Oduduwa, arrest him and you make him the greatest hero of the Yoruba since independence. Whichever way he wins.”
