AS a result of their continued hostilities, banditry and kidnapping in the South-West zone of the country, the Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho, has again issued a fresh eviction notice to armed Fulani herders in the zone.
This latest notice would be the second that the Yoruba freedom fighter issued to the bandits.
When the banditry, kidnapping, raping and maiming of innocent women and farmers remained unabated under the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari, Igboho embarked on a tour of most Yoruba states warning violent herders to vacate the zone.
The eviction notice angered the Buhari government resulting in the invasion of the Ibadan residence of Sunday Igboho but by providence, he escaped but lost some of his aides in the process.
He was later arrested and detained in the Niger Republic for years before he was let off the hook courtesy of prominent Yoruba elders and statesmen who intervened.
The onslaught of the herders reduced considerably only to resurge some months ago. When his people especially from Oke Ogun again sought his intervention, he issued another fresh notice.
The eviction notice
In an audio message, Olayomi Koiki, on behalf of Igboho said: “Today is the 15th of July, 2024.
This breaking news is issued around 6 pm. All Fulani people living in Oke Ogun, living inside the bushes there, who are kidnappers, that are killing the people, are immediately ordered to leave now. Sunday Igboho said he would continue his work at Oke-Ogun and in Kishi.
He said: “Someone has to tackle these herdsmen in the South-West. The governors are so helpless. I can’t thank you enough Sunday Igboho.
“I am thinking of joining the Yoruba Nation movement in North America. We have to oust the Fulani herdsmen out of Nigeria’s South-West.”
