Apprehensive of the present spate of insecurity in Southwest states, the Peoples Democratic Party has urged the leadership of the ruling All Progressives Congress to impress it on President Muhammadu Buhari on the need to safeguard lives of people in the region.
PDP said “it is unfortunate to state that the South West is today under the siege of Fulani terrorists or herdsmen who perpetrate criminal actions daily in the most unfettered manner. Much as we know that we cannot use the activities of these criminals to judge the entire Fulani people, many of whom are accomplished and responsible leaders in our Party and nation.“We however restate that the average Yoruba man is now compelled to believe that plans remain afoot to conquer and subdue us in our fatherland.
The statement urged Buhari to immediately order the Security agencies to flush these criminals out of the South West immediately to give Yorubas a sigh of relieve and discard the suspicion that ethnic cleansing is about to be prosecuted in the country. “When we recall that this same Ekiti that is the Fulani terrorists/ herdsmen main operational theatre was bereft of developments of this nature under ex-Governor Ayo Fayose, it calls to question the commitment of all our Governors to keep our region safe.
