We’ll protect Yorubaland against invasion, OPC, hunters, vigilantes assure South-West indigenes
Some Yoruba self-determination groups have pledged to defend the region against invasion.
Yorubaland has been under attack by rampaging killer herdsmen accused of worsening insecurity in the region by raping, abducting and killing indigenes.
The groups urged South-West monarchs not to hesitate to invite any of them if the security of any indigene was threatened by invaders anywhere in the region. They also threw their weight behind the Western Nigerian Security Network, Amotekun.
The groups comprising the Odua Peoples Congress, Agbekoya, Hunters Group, Isokan Ile Yoruba, Vigilante Group of Nigeria, Ibarapa Group and the Community Society Awareness Initiative, stated this in a communiqué issued after a security meeting held on Friday in Lagos.
