Eniola Akinkuotu, Abuja

Afenifere Chairman, Reuben Fasoranti, has lamented the high level of insecurity in the country, adding that Nigeria is now at war.

Fasoranti said this on Saturday while addressing sympathisers who came to condole with him over the murder of his daughter, Olufunke Olakunri.



While the police and the government have insisted that it was bandits that killed Mrs. Olakunri, Afenifere and other Yoruba groups claim she was killed by suspected herdsmen.

However, 94-year-old Fasoranti said Nigeria had become so bad that it had become difficult for people to go to their farms since crops are destroyed.

The Afenifere leader said he had just finished attending the synod when his daughter came to greet him and bade him farewell unknown to him that she would be gunned down minutes later.

Speaking in Yoruba language, Fasoranti said, “We just finished Synod and we met there and then she came to greet me at home, informing me that she would be travelling back to Lagos and the next thing I heard was that she had been murdered on the way.

“You know how such a thing sounds but as believers, we are hopeful that God would do well and that tomorrow will be better. May God continue to protect us because we are at war. When we go to the farm, we meet them there. We are all scared; we cannot go to our fathers’ farmlands anymore.

“When we plant crops, they don’t even allow the crops to grow. May God continue to answer our prayers. Thank you all.”

So true. it is not flesh and blood that revealed this to you. But, the jagaban of the sophisticated people.

Evans u are now a semi devil whenever some fools carry out their evil did they will now call on you

Tinubu is just senseless

This évil is long coming

Honestly speaking, with all due respect to BAT, he goofed on this one big time.
I have always respected his political doggedness and sagacity, but with recent happening, I can't help but believe that he does not have the mental capacity to lead a complex nation as Nigeria. It's obvious he is desperate for power and as such can sacrifice even the whole country just to be at the helm of affairs.

I hope it is also Evans people that abducted Olu Falae, and also Evans people that attack d Wole Soyinka's house.

Please people of south west is BAT the best you can really offer??
BAT indeed a disappointment.

So this is the idiot leading the yoruba nation?

Out of the thousands of intellects and professors, the yorubas chose to follow this drug dealer.
Smh.

The oldman wasn't fooled afterall

It's all Evans fault Daddy. Take heart Sir.

We are already at war with boko haram, fulani herdsmen, kidnappers and rogue politicians.

The rogue politicians are the biggest villains and are even worse than Boko Haram.

"....Insecurity in the country, particularly the South-West region, predominantly occupied by the Yoruba tribe, has recently risen with herdsmen from the Fulani extraction fingered as arrowheads of the criminal activities..."

Humn!

The Northern Elders.........has stated that insecurity in the north is worse under Buhari.Chairman of the Northern Elders Forum, Prof Ango Abdullahi, who revealed that insecurity in the north is worse under Buhari than when Goodluck Jonathan was leading the country, added that the President is not doing enough to salvage the situation.

It is not about party, but death of innocent sous, it may be anyone's turn, if we all refuse to act collectively and responsibly now!

We are a nation full of hypocrites!
