Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho has vowed to storm the forests in a renewal of his activity of chasing killer herdsmen out of the Southwest region as from Monday.
This is as Igboho also urged President Muhammadu Buhari to prevail on the herdsmen to stop their criminal activities and vacate the southwest region.
He accused the herdsmen of killing innocent people from the southwest, kidnapping them, and demanding ransom for their release.
Igboho in a video that has gone viral on the internet warned that as from Monday, he and his men would go into the forests in the Southwest regions and hunt down the killer herdsmen as it is increasingly becoming clearer that no one is safe again.
He said: “Buhari, Buhari, I’m calling you again I am sending a message to the Buhari government to warn killer herders in Southwest to vacate our lands.
“They are killing our brothers. As from Monday, we are going into forests to face killer herders face-to-face, all the lands in Yoruba land will be secured.
“All these killer herders are kidnapping our brothers and collecting ransom. Look at the way they are killing our people.
“All monarchs and kings in the southwest should rise up and speak up at this critical moment; you can see they are already kidnapping kings too.”
Meanwhile, the mother of Leah Sharibu, Rebecca Sharibu has alleged that her daughter has not been rescued from Boko Haram captivity because she is a Christian.
Naija News reports Leah is one of the 110 Dapchi schoolgirls kidnapped by Boko Haram in February 2018 but while other girls have been released by their abductors, she is still with the insurgents three years after the incident.
On Friday, May 14, 2021, Leah will turn 18 years old and except anything changes before then, she would be celebrating her birthday in the den of her kidnappers.
Asked during an interview with Punch correspondent on why she believes her daughter is yet to be rescued by the government, Mrs Sharibu said it is because Leah has refused to denounce her Christian faith.
