| Falae |
Afenifere is compelled to issue this strong warning on the
abduction of one of our leaders, Chief Olu Falae by Fulani herdsmen for over 24
hours now.
Chief Falae has had running battles with the Fulani cattle
rearers for sometime now as they continued to devastate his farmland,a scourge
which farmers in Yorubaland has suffered for decades now.
The last devastation of his maize farm recently was
unbearable and he took it upon himself to pursue remedy until they paid
compensation.
His abduction by Fulanimen on his birthday is largely
perceived as a terror revenge by the Fulani herdsmen.
We have in the interest of the stability of the country
refrained from making strong statements that could incite our people hoping
these criminals would see reason and let him go.
We do not imagine that some Yoruba traders would go and
abduct Maitama Sule or Adamu Chiroma in the North and there won't be a festival
of blood on the streets within hours.
We therefore call on the leaders of the north to reach out
to these herdsmen to release Chief Falae immediately.
Nobody can predict the consequences IF anything untoward
happening to Chief Falae in the custody of the herdsmen.
We Have Warned!
Yinka Odumakin.
National Publicity Secretary.
