We Won’t Allow IPOB Regime In Yorubaland – Akeredolu
Governor Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State has vowed that a recreation of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB sit at home regime would not be allowed in Yorubaland.
According to him misguided secessionists now agitating for Oodua Naiton will not be allowed to turn Yoruba land into another troubled enclave as is now present in the Southeast.
Akeredolu spoke in Akure at the flag-off of the 2023 Armed Forces Remembrance Day celebration as he affirmed that the sacrifices of heroes past in forging the unity of the nation would not be rubbished.
He said: “Those clamouring for Oodua Nation will not succeed. People have not laid down their lives for this country for unscrupulous individuals to scuttle it. This country is very important to some of us.
“We recognise the right of the people to protest or agitate. But if the police feel your actions are treasonable, they will arrest and prosecute you.
“It is not at this stage in the history of this country that we will repeat IPOB in Yorubaland. Opportunity beacons at us. We cannot afford to throw away that opportunity.
“We must work to ensure that there is power shift. The opportunity for presidency to come to the south, especially the Southwest, is around the corner.
“We will not sit down and support anyone clamouring for Oodua nation. We will not support it. We have fought for this with everything we had. Nigeria will be good.
“The security agencies will checkmate these unscrupulous enemies embarking on such frivolous activities.
“We have responsibilities now to soberly reflect on the plight of those who have laid down their lives and those who are still laying down their lives for the unity and peace of this country.”
