The Olu of Ilaro and Paramount Ruler of Yewa land, Oba Kehinde Olugbenle, has said there are reports of plans by herdsmen to attack major town in Yewa axis of Ogun State, asking President Muhammadu Buhari to “stop in the bomb before it is too late.”
In a statement on Saturday, Oba Olugbenle drew the attention of President Buhari and all the security agencies to what he termed the continued siege of the entire Yewa land of Ogun State in the last few weeks by “armed herdsmen and bandits, callously killing, including literally slaughtering and maiming our people.”
According to the monarch, “The criminal and dangerous activities of these herdsmen have so far happened in Egua, Oja-Odan, Igan Alade, Gbokoto, Ijoun, Owode Ketu, Ebute Igbooro, Imeko Afon and other places with reports of plans to attack major towns in Yewa land.”
