Oyogist has learned that the Buhari administration has opened up regarding the actual reason behind the raid by DSS on Sunday Igboho’s Residence as Soka Ibadan on 1 July.
Presidential spokesperson, Garba Shehu, in a statement obtained by Oyogist, accused Igboho, who has been canvassing for a Yoruba Nation, of “conducting acts of terror and disturbing the peace under the guise of protecting fellow “kinsmen”.
According to Shehu,
“Igboho’s seditious utterances and antics, which he is known to have publicly expressed, have overtime morphed into very hateful and vile laden speeches.
“It must be highlighted that the government respects fundamental rights of citizens to express their views and recognizes this as a democratic tenet, however, any attempt to build an armoury coupled with plans either subtle or expressed to undermine our unity as a nation will not be condoned”.shehu stated further.
Speaking regarding the recovery of arms at Igboho’s residence, Garba Shehu insisted that BUHARI directives to Security Services regarding anyone seen to be carrying arms, particularly AK-47 are clear and require no further illumination”.
Shehu stated further, “Assault weapons are not tools of peace loving people and as such, regardless of who they are and where they are from, the Security Agencies should treat them all the same”.
