Sunday Igboho/Fulani:
Political issues will always trend well because man and politics are one. That said the matter of Fulani raiders wreaking havoc on the lands of other ethnicities in the south has become a major vexing issue in the polity. In the latest saga, attacks against indigenes in Ibarapa, Oyo State which claimed the life of one Former House of Representatives candidate, Dr Fatai Aborede has led a local leader, Sunday Igboho, to ask the Fulani in the area to leave. The new development is that the state police CP has been directed to order the arrest of the man. Sunday Adeyemo better known as Igboho is a Yoruba activist, local activist and politician who gained attention in the late ’90s during the Modakeke/Ife conflict. He worked with governors Lam Adesina and Rashidi Ladoja in the fourth republic as a top aide and associate. The latest crisis has placed him on a collision course with the governor Seyi Makinde as it seems he is usurping the government’s power to protect the people. On his part, he has come out to declare that if the government cannot defend its own, then the people will take matters into their own hands as they have now.Sign up to the Connect Nigeria daily newsletter
