Gov Makinde orders police to arrest Sunday Igboho for chasing Fulani from Oyo community

Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has ordered the Police to arrest Sunday Igboho.

His order came after Igboho and his supporters went to Igangan to chase Fulanis from Igangan.

Makinde told the new Commissioner of Police, Ngozi Onadeko, that his administration would continue to synergise with law enforcement organs fight criminals, hoodlums and bandits irrespective of their tribe or religion.

“For people stoking ethnic tension, they are criminals and once you get them, they should be arrested and treated like common criminals.

“I am sure that since you came in, you must have heard about some things happening at Ibarapa axis of the state. I will still say it here that we are not after Hausa-Fulani. We are after criminals”, he said.
