The Yoruba Council of Elders, YCE, yesterday
rose from its Executive Council Meeting in
Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, and warned
the Boko Haram sect not to attempt to
spread its violence to the South-West.
The YCE, also known as Igbimo Agba Yoruba,
speaking through its Publicity Secretary, Mr.
Yemi Falade, said the security challenges being
faced by the country were thoroughly discussed
during the meeting.
Falade said the group took cognisance of the
implication of Monday’s attack on the Deeper
Life Church in Kogi State, adding that all the
necessary mechanisms to ward off any invasion
by those he described as dissidents had been
put in place.
A communiqué issued at the end of the
meeting, which was signed by the President,
Major General Adeyinka Adebayo (rtd), General
Secretary, Chief Idowu Sofola (SAN) and Falade,
said: “Yoruba race will not take kindly or stay
idle watching the country being destroyed.”
The communiqué noted that the YCE at the
meeting, “critically and extensively reviewed
the security situation in the country and
expressed serious concern which calls for
urgent action from the Federal Government of
Nigeria.
“YCE highly appreciates and commends the
effort our President, Dr. Ebele Goodluck
Jonathan, has employed to tackle the problems
brought about by some misguided elements,
who are said to be bent on destroying the unity
and progress of Nigeria.
“Igbimo Agba Yoruba at this meeting resolved
to call such elements to order forthwith,
because the Yoruba race is interested in the
unity and progress of Nigeria.”

Trying to reason along with the Yoruba council of PDP elders.

So violence and killings of innocent Nigerians is not YCE's problem until it enters SW? SW is still part of Nigeria and problems in other parts of Nigeria had better be seen as SW's problem too.

This is a very selfish and myopic view.

this is rather cowardly

Yoruba themselves are bokos. so why wont a boko be welcomed in boko territory.
Tunde Bakare can house and further inspire them to more blood shed.

id1otic cowards!

So the Yoruba people in the North central are not under your umbrella ehn. .? . .

Very soon we'll read headlines like "Kill the Yorubas but don't come to Ogun"

DO they need authorization to act?

No Room for Boko Haram in Yoruba land, Muslims and Christians in our land are families and friends.

What about Nigeria? What about the Nigerian consciousness? What about the Nigerian dream?

No, Nigeria is not one. Let us sit now and discuss, enough of this games.

GAME OVER.
