Yoruba Nation activist, Chief Sunday Adeniyi Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, has appealed to the Federal Government to grant him official permission to combat Fulani bandits allegedly terrorizing communities in the South-West.
Igboho, who became prominent in 2021 for championing the cause of Yoruba self-determination, said the rising wave of insecurity demands urgent action. He stressed that with government backing, he and his loyalists are prepared to flush out bandits who, according to him, have been infiltrating forests and farmlands across the region.
While urging President Bola Tinubu’s administration to take decisive steps, Igboho insisted that his move is not targeted at any ethnic group but solely at criminal elements threatening peace and livelihoods in Yorubaland.
The activist further warned that continued silence on the matter could worsen food insecurity and displace more farmers, stressing that the South-West must not be left vulnerable to attacks.
