Hon. Shina Abiola Peller, the MHR representing Iseyin/Itesiwaju/Kajola and Iwajowa constituency in the Federal House of Representatives, has lauded rights activist, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, for his bravery and determination in evicting criminal herdsmen from the South West.
OmoLamuruduMedia had earlier reported that Igboho issued and enforced a vacation order to the Fulani herdsmen accused of perpetrating crimes ranging from kidnappings, killings, rape to invasion of farmlands with their cattle in Igangan, Ibarapa Local Government Area of Oyo State.
He stated: “I will soon sack criminal herdsmen from Osun, Ekiti, Ondo, Ogun, Lagos even Kwara State.
“We are tired of the criminal activities of these herdsmen.
“Yoruba must unite to fight this course.
“I am not scared of anybody.
“I am fighting for the peace of my people, enough is enough.
“The killing is much.
“I am not ready for any dialogue with any government other than they should ensure that those herders leave our land.”
Igboho’s statement was met with a huge uproar and mixed reactions from all sects within the country.
Hon Peller has stepped forward to salute the Yoruba activist for his determination to restore peace to the South West, even in the face of death threats and the razing down of his home in Ibadan.
Hon Peller went on to warn that no citizen should take laws into their hands to avoid a chain of drastic events. He stated that Governors in the Southwest were fully committed to restoring peace and unity across the South West regions and Nigeria as a whole.
