Ibadan communal clash: Govt must take proactive steps to avoid degeneration – Baale of Shasha

From Oluseye, Ojo Ibadan

The Baale of Shasha community in Akinyele Local Government Area of Oyo State, Chief Amusa Ajani, has told both the federal and state government to take proactive steps in finding lasting solution to the incessant clashes between the two ethnic groups in the community before the situation generate further.

He made the call as the Chairman of the South West Governors’ Forum and Ondo State governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, and Oyo State governor, Seyi Makinde, visited Shasha community, where the two tribes clashed heavily on Friday and Saturday.

Ajani stated that many of the Yoruba in Shasha lost their land to the acquisition by the Federal Government when the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) was set up many years ago. They all settled in Shasha and the Ford Foundation and Rocky Feller Foundation from the United States of America built Shasha Market for them to make lifeore meaningful to them.

His words: “For me, the arson that trailed the death of a cobbler in the market was misdirected and uncalled for. It is sad that the group that was responsible for the death of the man were still those going about torching houses and shops.

“It all started with the argument that ensued between a pregnant woman and an Hausa man. A cobbler who came around to pacify them was struck with an object. He died the next day, and things went wild. Government should act fast.

“Those who are causing trouble are now mocking us. They said if Shasha is no longer habitable they would relocate to nearby community. We want an end to violence in Shasha. I have told our people to maintain peace. Nobody should engage in violence but. we want the Hausas to sheathe the sword.

“But, come to think of it, why has urgent and proactive action not been taken? Who is the government afraid of? They are beating about the bush. The people are now saying that they would relocate from Shasha to Iroko (another community in Akinyele Local Government, which is about 10 kilometres to Shasha). Should we be doing this to ourselves as a people?”

From Tony Osauzo, Benin Youths protesting fuel price hike and scarcity of the product in Edo State, yesterday, blocked the Lagos-Benin Expressway at Oluku Junction, forcing commuters to be stranded for hours. Commuters who were on their way to Lagos and those hoping to do business in the area were stranded for long hours. Transporters, travellers and those who have businesses in the area lamented the blockade and expressed dissatisfaction over the incident. One of them, Grace Emmanuel, a trader who was taking her goods to Ekiadolor, said it was pertinent for her to take her perishable goods to where she would sell them so that she doesn't incur losses. "It is unfortunate that this protest is taking place because it will add to the existing problem. If I don't get my goods to where I will sell them, some might get bad and I will incur losses which I don't want at this time. "They are protesting for the right reasons. The fuel situation is hitting hard on everybody but blocking the roads will lead to losses to individuals who are going to do business," she stated. Similarly, a driver who gave his name as Osahon, said the protest has left most people stranded in the axis. He, therefore, called on the government to address cause of the fuel crisis in the country.

    We this territory natives who owns the land and are more than 99% population of this natives territory have liberated from the bondage of fulani government in which the six geopolitical zones are sovereign states- Biafra Republic of south east, Niger Delta Republic of south south, Oduduwa Republic of south west, North East Republic, North West Republic, Middle Belt Republic. Hausa people, Kanuris etc. of the north must be traditional rulers, religious leaders, political office holders etc. over their God given native lands under their sovereign states. Southern natives must have democratic capacity under their sovereign states to fix their lands, economies.

    Anyone among this territory natives who do not respect this territory natives’ victory over fulani criminals and submit to governments of this territory natives under the six sovereign states, must go down with defeated fulani criminals- either way.

    Defeated fulani criminals and their thugs nickname military, police etc. must be eliminated on every inch of the six sovereign states. It is not Yoruba war. It is war between we this territory natives who owns the land and fulani criminals from Guinea. It is bloody engagement of man to man, fight to finish in Sokoto.

    Every community, town, city of this territory natives must be fully armed now, Slaughter defeated fulani criminals and their thugs nickname military, police etc. from all directions and take their weapons, Burn Down their barracks etc. and take their weapons for existence securities and freedom of this territory natives under the natives Disintegrated Republics. Only the Sword decides.
