We won’t allow Fulani herdsmen to continue to kill our people – Sunday Igboho

Yoruba Rights Activist, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, has said he would continue to defend the people of Yoruba from the swords of Fulani herdsmen.

Igboho spoke, yesterday, when former minister of Aviation and chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Femi Fani-Kayode, visited him at his Soka, Ibadan residence in Oyo State. He spoke as Fani-Kayode asked the Federal Government to allow all Nigerians carry fire arms, if the government could make a case for Fulani herdsmen to carry AK-47 rifles to protect themselves and their cows.

Igboho said: “I don’t have anything to say for now, my uncle (Fani-Kayode) has said everything for me. What we want in Yorubaland is peace. We don’t want banditry, we don’t want Fulani herdsmen to continue to kill our people, we want our people to be free.

“My message to my people in Yorubaland is that they must try to defend themselves. Don’t let anyone come to your farm or your home to kill you, you must try to defend yourself, which was what the minister said too.”
