Yoruba socio-cultural group, Yoruba Koya Movement, has declared tomorrow as a national day of protest against the ongoing killings and kidnapping across Yoruba-speaking states, including Kogi and Kwara.

The “June 12 Otoge rally” is backed by a Yoruba intelligentsia group, Voice of Reason (VOR), and 26 other socio-cultural and self-determination groups.

It will hold in all state capitals of Ondo, Oyo, Ekiti, Lagos, Osun, Ogun, Kogi and Kwara states simultaneously.

In a statement yesterday, the group’s National Director of Publicity, Mr. Maxwell Adeleke, said the rally is aimed at presenting the “Yoruba Charter of Demands to the government of Federal Republic of Nigeria (FRN) and to also present a Public Petition to the United Nations (UN), European Union (EU), African Union (AU) and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) over the ongoing killings in Southern and Middle Belt Nations of Nigeria”.

The statement added that the rally is being organised to “reawaken the people of Yoruba-speaking states to be conscious of the agenda of some ethnic warlords and reactionaries outside their domain to capture their land and enslave them while masquerading as visitors and to enjoin all governors in Yoruba speaking states to integrate towards economic, social and political development of Yorubaland and to encourage them to make the security of lives and properties of their people utmost priority”.

“The rally is meant to encourage Yoruba legislators both at the state and national assemblies to endorse, support and move motions that will expressly indicate where the Yoruba stands,” the statement said.

The rally, billed to begin at 9am, will hold simultaneously at Gani Fawehinmi Park, Lagos; Ibadan Military Cenotaph, Opposite Government House, Agodi, Ibadan, Oyo State and Pansheke Roundabout, Abeokuta, Ogun State.

Other locations are, Fajuyi Roundabout, Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State; Nelson Mandela Freedom Park, Osogbo, Osun State; Alagbaka Roundabout, opposite First Bank, Akure, Ondo State; Kabba Township Stadium, Kabba, Kogi State and Ibrahim Taiwo Road, Ilorin, Kwara State.

Please I don't want any fruitless rally, let us cooperate and drive those criminals (kidnappers) out of our lands. petition the governors, the kings and other concerned stakeholders to form our own defence against these criminals. Enough is enough.

Rally kill una there.
You voted and supported this terrorist government.
Yorubas and fulanis are brothers, and as such cannot be separated by any means. They should enjoy the next level they voted.
Just like the killing is not more in your region.

All of you chest beaters are funny.
Yoruba this, Igbo that, Fulani this, Hausa that.

Continue your ramblings when others are healing their wounds and moving on.
Let's see what will happen to the generation after you, your parents have not suffered enough.

Instead, you should all to sit down together and figure out how to better your lot in the future.

For those ethnic jingoists calling the Yoruba cowards, you're merely disingenuous. Look throughout Nigeria's chequered history and see who the real cowed and beaten are. Wole Soyinka was imprisoned for two yrs, Adekunle Fajuyi was killed because he wouldn't allow Ironsi to be killed. Fela, OBJ, Gani Fawehinmi were jailed for daring to speak truth to power.
Conversely, however, Ojukwu and Kanu ran away in the heat and mist of trouble.So, who are the real cowards?
If the Yoruba had so desired to pull out of this union like the Igbos so desperately desire, it would have happened.
Once the Yoruba pull their plug on this papered union, it's game over.

Why are you calling them cowards? They are speaking out against the evil machinations of tribalist Buhari.

Atleast IPOB and MASSOB are fighting for self determination because they believe they can survive on their own, whereas yorubas are the biggest joke in Nigeria. Everyone knows you can't survive alone much reason you have to endure to live with the ppl you hated so much.
They can't survive alone ? but they kept their peace now. Yeebos that can survive alone but beg for senate president. Use your brain now, who is now hilarious?
