Ogun State Elders’ Consultative Forum has urged indigenes and residents of the state to desist from taking the laws into their hands, urging them to always embrace dialogue.
The appeal was contained in a statement signed in Abeokuta by the Forum’s Chairman, Prince Bola Ajibola and made available to newsmen by the forum’s press officer, Dolapo Jinad.
The elders said that the Amotekun Security outfit, when fully inaugurated, would work with all other security agencies to maintain peace in Ogun State.
According to them, Amotekun will go a long way in reducing what they called the “nefarious activities of the unrepentant Fulani herdsmen,” who it was alleged, “have continued to destroy farmlands, as well as kidnapping innocent persons in Yewa and Ijebu.”
