The Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yoruba land, Gani Adams, seeks permission from South-West governors to pursue the killers of three Yoruba monarchs.
Adams emphasizes the urgency of the situation and the need for coordinated action against threats to Yoruba land’s security.
In an open letter addressed to Ekiti State Governor, Abiodun Oyebanji, Adams expresses his capacity to deal with the enemies of Yoruba land but stresses the importance of obtaining permission from the governors.
Adams highlights recent killings, including those of two Ekiti monarchs and one in Kwara State, raising alarm over the danger facing the Yoruba race.
He recalls the killing of the Olufon of Ifon in Ondo State in 2020, stressing the unprecedented nature of the recent spate of monarch killings.
Adams asserts his readiness to confront the security challenges, mentioning the support network of the Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC) and other affiliated groups.
However, he emphasizes the need for collaboration with elected governors, who serve as the Chief Security Officers of their respective states.
Adams requests an urgent meeting with South-West governors to strategize and coordinate efforts in addressing the security threats. He offers his maximum support to the governors and pledges to work together to significantly reduce insecurity across the region.
