Threat to Fulani: Yoruba group cautions Igboho over crime ethnicisation

A Yoruba group, the Yoruba Welfare Group (YWG), has cautioned the Yoruba Nation agitator Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, to tread with caution.

The caution followed his renewed threat to Fulanis in the South-West.

The group warned Igboho to stop heating the polity by “ethnicising or regionalising criminal acts.”

Daily Trust on Sunday reports that Igboho recently returned to Nigeria after over 30 months.

He left Nigeria in 2021 and was arrested in Benin Republic on his way to Germany.

Following his return, he renewed his call on Fulanis in the Southwest to vacate, saying he was back to pursue them if they failed to leave.

However, the National President of YWG, Comrade Abdulhakeem Alawuje, in a statement yesterday warned Sunday Igboho to desist from his threat on the Fulani residents of the region, saying crimes should not be ethnicised.
