Alaafin of Oyo, Lamidi Adeyemi has raised the fears and worries of the people of the Southwest in a letter to President Muhammadu Buhari on Sunday over criminal activities perpetrated in the region with reckless abandon.
In the letter which comes weeks after that written to Buhari by former President Olusegun Obasanjo, the Alaafin said that herdsmen, sometimes unleash terror on innocent citizens while wearing military uniform, stirring fear and panic in Yoruba land. “In Yoruba land, we are scared and worried about the outrageous audacity and effrontery of these criminal elements in carrying out their activities and without any challenge by security operatives,” the letter read in part.
