JUST IN: Sunday Igboho Faces Soldiers, Policemen (Video)
Sunday Igboho has reiterated his position that Fulani herdsmen must leave Oyo State.
The Yoruba activist made the declaration to a team of soldiers and policemen.
In a VIDEO obtained on Saturday, Igboho told the security agents he would not go back on his demand.
“I don’t want any herdsman in the whole land. C’est fini! (it is finished)”, he said.

Igboho might be arrested anytime soon, going by orders given to the police by the federal and Oyo governments.
The activist, on January 15, ordered Fulanis in Igangan, a community in Ibarapa North Local Government Area, to leave the state.
Igboho has blamed them for the increase in murders and kidnap recently. He stormed the area again on Friday.
His comments and actions have generated diverse reactions across the country.
Reacting to the arrest order, Adewale Giwa, Senior Pastor of Awaiting The Second Coming of Christ Ministry, called for restraint.
The cleric, who said Igboho’s arrest “will hasten the disintegration of Nigeria”, accused President Muhammadu Buhari of shielding the Fulani “while they continue to kill our people”.

“Why didn’t IGP arrest Miyetti Allah and their representatives in Abuja? Sunday Igboho is doing the right thing for the entire Yoruba nation”, Giwa added.
On Femi Fani-Kayode’s part, he also kicked against IGP Adamu Muhammed’s order to arrest Sunday Igboho.
