SAN, Afenifere Criticizes The Presidency Over Its Stand On Ondo State Government’s Ultimatum To Herdsmen

Senior lawyers and groups, including Afenifere and the Yoruba Council of Elders have criticized the Presidency over its stand on the State Government’s ultimatum to herdsmen operating in the state’s forest reserves.

You will recall that the Ondo state government had issued a seven-day ultimatum to herdsmen operating in its forest reserves to register or quit the area within seven days.

It said the forest reserves had become hideouts of kidnappers.

However, the Northern Elders’ Forum directed the Fulani herdsmen to disregard the notice to quit the forest reserves in the state.

On a telephone interview with Inspiration FM, the Secretary General of the Yoruba Council of Elders, Dr. KUNLE OLAJIDE, described as unconstitutional, the reaction of the Presidency.
