Governor of Ondo State, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, has cautioned Chief Sunday Igboho and others agitating for a sovereign Yoruba State to stay away from the state.
The Governor said no part of the entire state, known and delineated as Ondo State, would permit any gathering or agitation which may suggest, however remotely, that the people are in support of what he termed ‘unthinking rabble rousing.
Akeredolu stated this while swearing in Princess Catherine Oladunni Odu as the new Secretary to the State Government and other Special Advisers said the state would not subscribe to banditry and recklessness in putting forth its demands.
“The right of citizens to discuss, agitate and even fight to right perceived wrongs, culminating in self-determination, must be done within known and acceptable parameters and all concerned must agree to pursue the same objectives to achieve a desirable or desired end.”
Akeredolu further noted that the reasons for the self declaration is needless and of personal benefits to some individuals.
