IFE - MODAKEKE CRISIS - CAUTIONING WORDS TO WAR-MONGERS
If news filtering on Ife Modakeke crisis in the last few hours is anything to go by, then it should be assumed that 90% of uprising fire will be fanned by fake news and unverified claims..
Let me say this, that 1997 is now far different from 2021, everything has gone digital that nothing is hidden anymore with mobile phones and internet, so no true Account will be doctored except what it is. You will see the actual and see the unreal being passed around by war mongers, but we will always put things in real perspective.
We will not allow any fake news to spread fire and we will do everything to forestall looming crisis in the best interest of all and sundry, especially for the non indigenes from all walks of life, who are mostly inhabitants on Ife land doing businesses and working here.
Findings show that some people heard some invisible Ife were coming at an area called Alaro in Modakeke, and they took guns to streets and started running here and there in the night, filming and shouting "Ogun ti de ooo" only to find no Ife coming from anywhere.
Ditto for places like Ondo road in Ife, where some Ife vigilantes were reportedly shooting guns in the air in the area to tell anyone coming that they are fully alert, all because they heard Modakeke were coming. And all of these are drawbacks of social media and skirmishes of news caused by some people's Business rivalry on farms week ago where a woman reported to be a farmers' loans giver with many debts to be recovered, was claimed to have been killed..
In the end, Modakekes were claiming the Ife killed the woman, and the Ife claimed Modakeke did. Yet, the truth of the sinister act lies somewhere around Business deal that went wrong in the village.
Well I'm glad that the two Communities are not interested in war any longer, except those who are agbotikuyos and profiteers from crisis.
I belong to special Ife and Modakeke WhatsApp groups as a spy "ti n fimu file" and I can tell you no one wants to hear the smell of war. Everyone is saying Not again, it doesn't pay anyone. Bulk of those that are getting paranoid, impatience and asking around social media are people outside the two towns and those sleeping but are hearing gun and assumed it has happened again. And it's understandable.
There are salient issues ofcourse, particularly on farm being occupied wrongly, but the recent issue at Alapata and Toro had nothing to do with this.
1997 long war left some scars and ruins to many families that are into farming, especially to Ife ancients family farmlands on those axis but some of us have moved on..
Some people have become millionaires by starting all over at Ife forest reserves, a reason why we will continue to tell Osun Government to leave that gifted land at Shaha -Ijebu boundary for the Ifes which was given out to Government years back, for continued peace so that no one will be interested to go back and be dragging farm with Modakeke at those places like Agbeke, Alapata, Toro etc.. God can bless cultivated virgin lands too.
We can always grow new areas and get over this. War doesn't pay anyone. The experience of the past has shown that war doesn't solve it. It doesn't. The scars are everywhere.
Before you share any news on any crisis or report, be sure of what you are passing around and be ready to defend it. People's Business and shading dealings should be what it is and should not wear a tribal colouration or religion garment.
In the last 20yrs, Ife and Modakeke people have been so integrated that the bike man you will flank down on Ife street to take you to the palace or your house at Alakowe may most likely a Modakeke man. Too many Modakeke youths are riding bikes in Ife just like we have many from all over the state. Ife is the biggest hub for commercial motorcycle transportation in Osun State.
Similarly, or in the same vein, it is more likely that you will see an Ife woman at Modakeke market buying cows for Burial or food ingredients. A lot of our people in Ife go to modakeke to buy food items - they claim food are cheaper there than Ife, so you will think of economic loss that the scars of over 20yrs will bring.
I grew up in the war of 97, I saw it all and I often wish Modakeke should be taken away from Ife land or surrounding so that we will not have someone who we will always look into each others eyes, but I have since grown to see Modakekes as the other part of Ife that will be there for ever, because the community had come so long with History with Ife and very old than many towns in Osun today, hence we call them Isale Ife.
There is a reason why fate has brought us together and we can continue to see it like that while everyone maintains their lane and status.
I'm also glad that local security leaders in both towns are dispelling and quelling the news already with the good efforts of Ooni of Ife, the the grand father of entire Ife land and Modakeke elders. I'm equally happy that Osun Government is not sleeping.
For the Ifes, I want us to see Modakekes as our wives that can not be pushed away, and so for whatever reason, we should be able to sit together and discuss differences while not failing to fish out the evil ones among us on both sides because only truth can bring peace and prosperity to the entire Ife land. To modakekes, I enjoin you to join hands to help bring development to Ifeland because the comfort of the trees is the comfort of the birds. If the rope is not resting, the standing fowl on it will not rest too ooo.
War is not rice and beans ooo. Let's stop spreading nonsense in news and avoid adding petrol to fire. Enu mi ago!

[/s]Nothing like that, it is the plan of the enemy because of the growing agitation for Yoruba Nation but wise people from both Ife and Modakeke has stepped in to calm the situation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOqqThqsxjY
My uncle was killed in Toro farm four days ago. We are still unable to retrieve his corpse. You can shove your Yoruba nation up my arse. This post was to warn people to restrict their movement. I am not sure if you were born in 1980, 83 or 1997 when the war started. War doesn't discriminate. If you can't warn people to stay save you should keep your data to watch YouTube videos.

[/s]keep quiet and stop spreading falsehood. I posted a video done last night by both men from Ife and Modakeke and you are blabbing. The right thing to do is to de escalate and stop building up tension you Fooolll.
It's a waste of time reasoning with cretins like you. I just told you I lost an uncle 4 days ago which is why the crisis started. Can you dispute the fact that people were killed in the past few days? Can you dispute the fact that there were gun shots being fired around oke eso over night today? While there is an ongoing peace talk would you suggest your family members go attend a party around the boundries today?

You lost an Uncle, my condolence, Nevertheless let hope for things to be calm, the video I shared with you was done last night by both the Youth leader from Ife and Modakeke, even Ooni has called for calm. What we all need to do is to spread the news of things being under control and not putting petrol into fire by raising up tensions. As at yesterday, youths and men from both sides have sat down and reach a peace accord, people like you now who are not aware of that are still busy spreading fear and tensions all around.

MsAllison: yes. do you want them to give you contract?
Don't understand you. Like contract, money? Which type of contract, how long will it take? And why are the things you need? How much are we talk about?
