The Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association (MACBAN) says Yoruba activist, Sunday Adeyemo aka Sunday Igboho must be arrested over Friday’s attack on the residence of Seriki Fulani of Oyo State, Alhaji Saliu Abdulkadir.
Chairman of Miyetti Allah in Oyo, Alhaji Ibrahim Jiji, made the demand on Saturday during an interaction with reporters.
He said that Fulani people in the state were now living in fear of being attacked.
Jiji appreciated Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde for his efforts so far in restoring normalcy.
The Miyetti Allah leader however stated that Igboho has become a law unto himself and must be reminded that he is not stronger than the government.
“We are all Nigerians. We appreciate and love the governor of Oyo State, Engr. Seyi Makinde for saying the truth. We need to join hand together to ensure we have a peaceful society. Our people are not happy and many of them are living in fear. Some had fled their homes.

We want justice for Seriki Fulani. All those that perpetrated the evil must face the wrath of the law. They are not powerful than the government. Who is Sunday Igboho and why is he more powerful than the government?
“I have said time without number that we have criminals among all the tribe and not peculiar to Fulani. Those who are suffering the injustice now are not the criminals they are hunting for.
“These are good people and not criminals. The government should do the needful to ensure peace returns to the Ibarapa axis.”
