President Bola Tinubu and the Federal Government have been reminded to urgently address worsening insecurity in rural Oyo State after gunmen killed three farmers in his hometown of Igboho.
Yoruba nation activist Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, who made this statement on Monday identified the victims as Aderoju Mukaila, Olawuwo Saka, and Ojeniyi Ojebayo. The trio were attacked on Sunday, rushed to a hospital, but later succumbed to their injuries.
Igboho expressed frustration over what he described as the government’s inaction despite repeated warnings about rising insecurity in the region.
“On Sunday, three innocent people were killed in my town, Igboho. This is exactly what I have been warning the government about for years. Nothing has changed, and our people continue to suffer attacks while those responsible roam freely,” he said.
The attack took place in Igboho, located in the Orelope Local Government Area, expressing growing concerns over rural security in Nigeria’s South-West. Igboho urged authorities to intervene swiftly to prevent further violence and protect vulnerable farming communities.
