Hundreds of butchers from the 11 Local Government Areas of Ibadan on Tuesday urged Governor Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo State to intervene in the crisis over the purported relocation of butchers to Amosun village or they will use their votes to push out the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), in the state in the 2019 general elections.

They made this know when they staged a protest to the state secretariat over the demolition of structures at the Bodija market and intimidation, harassment of butchers in other markets in the city.

DAILY POST recalls that the Bodija abattoir was demolished in the early hours of Sunday after many of the butchers had been prevented to carry out their daily businesses in other markets at Gbagi, Adegbayi, Babarere among other markets.

The angry butchers who carried various placards to express their displeasure, maintained that they used their votes to vote in the governor, as they warned that failure to address the issue will propel them to vote out his party, APC in 2019 elections.

The protesters while expressing their grievances in some of the placards said, “Eyin ara ilu e gba wa o”, “APC, butchers vote you to power, don’t let us vote your party out”, “APC ni apapo e gba wa o”.

Mr. Tunji Jigan who spoke on behalf of the protesting butchers lamented that the abattoir was destroyed at the weekend and they had come to let the government know about the incident.

Speaking on the directive by the state government that all butchers relocate to the new central abattoir at Amosun village, Jigan noted that the case was already in court and government should allow the court give verdict before asking them to relocate.

Deputy Governor in the state, Chief Moses Adeyemo while addressing the protesters, however, assured them that the case would be presented to the Governor and subsequent meeting with butcher’s representatives would be initiated for amicable resolution.
