Ooni urges Yoruba to unite against killings in South-West (Punch)

The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, on Sunday said it was high time the South-West geopolitical zone united and defended itself against bandits killing its people.

Ogunwusi, who said the  South-West had had enough of the killings by suspected herdsmen, said, “I call on all the people of Yoruba race at this time to be united. The time has come to end these killings. These killings must end, enough is enough.”

The monarch spoke at Kota Ekiti in the Ekiti East Local Government Area of Ekiti State during the thanksgiving ceremony organised in honour of a member representing Ekiti South Federal Constituency II in the House of Representatives, Femi Bamisile.

The traditional ruler, who said Yoruba people could no longer fold their hands and allow their people to be slaughtered, urged them to be united at this time and protect their territory. Read more
