Igboho, Kanu Should Be Treated With Care, Not Violence – Ladoja

Ex Oyo State Governor, Chief Rashidi Ladoja has come out to say that FG created Sunday Igboho and Nnamdi Kanu.

He recently revealed this during an interview with journalists at his Ondo Street, Bodija, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, he seriously believes both agitators deserve to be given amnesty just as the government did to several Boko Haram insurgents who got enlisted into some security agencies.

He added that agitators should be treated with care, not violence, because they are speaking out for what they believe in.

His words, “I want to appeal to the Federal Government to grant Igboho and Kanu amnesty, just as some of the dreaded Boko Haram insurgents were given amnesty.”

“Igboho and Kanu are creation of the Federal Government. Why? Because whenever they arrested herdsmen, who were killing their people, Federal Government never acts.”

“That was why those two people came up to defend their people.”

“Boko Haram members that were arrested a year ago by the government have been released to the Borno State government.”

“The Federal Government created Sunday Igboho in the context of Igangan massacre. People are agitating for what they believe in. They should be treated with care, and not as criminals.”

“Yoruba leaders, including the Alaafin of Oyo, have been complaining about the atrocities committed by Fulani herdsmen without response from the Federal Government.”

“Order would come from above to release them and that is why people resorted to self-help.”

“It is in this process that Igboho was created due to the killings that had been happening in Ibarapa axis and nobody has been arrested. Even if they were arrested, they will be released.”

“Arrest of Igboho will not change anything if government failed to do the needful. Many Igbohos will be created. Just like Kanu has become an acclaimed leader, and to some people, Igboho has also become a leader.”

“If caution is not taken by the Federal Government, the issue might boomerang, leading to many Igbohos and Kanus.”
