According to report report reaching oyogist.com, the Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland, Gani Adams, has thrown in his support for the Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, over the vacation order given to the Fulani herdsmen to quit the state’s forest reserves.
Reacting to Governor Akeredolu’s order, in a statement released by his Special Assistant on Media, Kehinde Aderemi, he noted that the presidency had failed to address the increasing insecurity in the country.
“Garba Shehu/Presidency apparently doesn’t know the meaning of forest reserves. It’s not accessible except to authorised personnel/loggers. Apart from the place being a place for valued cash trees, it also means a haven of safety for protected animals against poachers. The herdsmen living in the forests are not only unauthorised, they also would likely cut down trees to make fires and must also kill animals for food.”
