They called on the IGP to direct the state Commissioner of Police to work closely with the state government with a view to investigating, arresting and arraigning the sponsors and foot soldiers of the avoidable crisis in the overall interest of the two communities who have been co-habiting peacefully for ages.

“While we are not foreclosing the existence of any likely misunderstanding among some individuals in both Ile-Ife and Modakeke, it is wicked and treacherous for the affected persons to elevate such infractions into communal affairs to whip up undue sentiment and subsequently rocking the lingering existing peace between the two communities.

President Bola Tinubu has approved the establishment of National Health Fellows Programme, with young Nigerians, to be engaged in all the 774 local government areas in the country.
