The Kwara State Police Command has warned adherents of the Islamic religion and traditional worshipers against circulating inciting videos

The CP also advised the parties to warn their followers posting inciting videos on social media platforms to desist forthwith, noting that Kwara State is a state of harmony, and as such, all hands must be on deck to ensure that every effort must be made to make the state remain so.

The group also called on governments at all levels to set up religious advisory councils that would comprise all three religions in the country. The Isese members, who met in Ibadan under the leadership of Araba Agbaye Olu-lsese, His Eminence, Araba Awodotun Aworeni, were reacting to the development in Kwara State which led to the cancellation of an Isese festival scheduled to be held this month.

Speaking in Ibadan, the International Forum of Araba/Oluawo said, “Despite the intimidations of our members, we have cautioned them not to take laws into their own hands. It is based on this that we are calling on President Tinubu and all security agencies in the country to urgently wade into this matter before it gets out of hand.”All rights reserved.
