Sunday Igboho must operate within the law —Tunde Bakare

Serving Overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church in Lagos, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has said that popular Yoruba rights activist, Sunday Adeyemo, well 


known as Sunday Igboho must act within the ambits of the law to avert inter-tribal crisis in the country.

Bakare, who said he planned to meet with Igboho very soon, stressed that indiscriminate violence was not the way to handle the current herdsmen crisis rocking parts of the country.

 

“Igboho looks like a man who wants to fight for his people because they were murdered and raped but he must operate within the ambits of the law.

 

“Indiscriminate violence is an ill-wind that will blow no one any good and remember before you attack the Fulani in the South-West, there are Yorubas and other ethnic nationalities living in their own communities too and if they open fire on them, it will be so indiscriminate and we must avert it.

 

Bakare further said that the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, as well as other monarchs and leaders of thought in Yorubaland must be respected.

 

The activist, who issued a seven-day quit notice to herdsmen accused of sundry crimes in the Ibarapa area of Oyo State and enforced same, said Oba Ogunwusi failed to convey the pains and displeasure of the Yoruba people to the President during the visit.
