Oduduwa Republic: Agitator Defy Akeredolu’s Warning As Sunday Igboho Says No Going Back On Yoruba Nation

 

Yoruba nation agitators under the platform of Ilana Omo Oodua on Saturday stormed the streets of Akure, the capital of Ondo state in continuation of its support rally across the southwest states.

 

This development is in defiance to warning by Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, in March this year, that all agitators for Yoruba nation should stay away from the state.

 

Recall that Governor Akeredolu said the people of the state have elected to stay in the Federal Republic of Nigeria as constituted at present.

 

According to the governor, no part of the entire state, known and delineated as Ondo State, would permit any gathering or agitation which may suggest, however remotely, that the people are in support of what he termed ‘unthinking rabble rousing.’

 

Speaking to newsmen on the development, the spokesperson for the platform, Ilana Omo Oodua, Maxwell Adeleye had assured that the rally would hold without violence or any form of brigàndage.

 

He said the rally would relentlessly and vociferously demanded for Oduduwa Republic.

 

While speaking, the yoruba activist, Sunday Igboho disclosed that there is no going back on the agitation for Yoruba nation.

 

Igboho, emphasized that election will not be held in 2023.

 

The Yoruba activist, who spoke at the palace of the Deji of Akure, said that Yorubas can not be the second class citizens in Nigeria, hence the call for self-determination.

 

While disclosing that governors within the South-West region were behind the course for the realization of a Yoruba nation, Igboho lamented that traditional rulers have been striped of their powers due to selfish interests on the part of politicians.

 

“There no going back on Odua nation. There won’t be election in 2023 and all will be achieved before the year runs out.

 

“Fulanis are now terriorizing us on our land but it’s time for all that to end. All that we have are bing controlled by the Fulanis and that is why we are saying that enough is enough. All we want is Yoruba nation and nothing more.

 

Igboho also appealed to his followers to stop abusing Yoruba elders as he stated that they were also not happy with what is going on in the country.

 

Receiving the Igboho and his team at the Palace of the Deji of Akure, the Edemo of Akure, High Chief Afolabi Fayehun appealed to them on the need to shun violence in their agitation in order for it to scale through.

 

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) deployed its personnel to the Isokan Roundabout, venue of the rally.

 

Women, youths, okada riders are seen sitting in groups waiting for the rally to commence.

 

Spokesman for the Ondo Police Command, ASP Tee-Leo Ikoro, said the police would not allow miscreants use the rally to cause havoc like what happened during the #ENDSARS protest.
