Yoruba activist, Sunday Igboho has accused Enitan Ogunwusi, the Ooni of Ife, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and Governor Seyi Makinde of collecting bribes.
Sunday Igboho Also called out traditional rulers in Yoruba land, accusing them of not showing enough support for the struggle to liberate their people from “Fulani oppressors”.
Igboho spoke at a virtual town hall meeting that started on Tuesday and ended at the early hours of Wednesday where he accused the Ooni of turning a blind eye to the situation.
Igboho said: “I am not concerned about the police. The struggle is about Yoruba agenda as it concerns security situation in our land and I trust Yoruba people for support.
“When Ooni visited Buhari, the president received him by standing up but he said something I don’t like. That is why the Alaafin called me. He wants to tackle what Ooni said.

“Ooni should be able to tell Buhari about what Yoruba want. But he has collected dollars from Buhari. He called me but I don’t want to see him.
“Only Alaafin is supporting us and he has written a letter to the president. Ooni disappointed me. Politicians are with him,” he added.
“Our leaders are lazy and slaves to Fulanis. They visit Abuja to collect money, we will attack them and destroy their property. Ooni should be dealt with. I am annoyed. Why should we be afraid of the crown they (Yoruba monarchs) wear?
“Tinubu and other Yoruba politicians are Fulani slaves. We need not be afraid. I have not collected any money from anyone. I am a full Yoruba man and I will not allow Fulani people to enslave me, we do not look or behave alike in any way. The herders should go. Makinde is also a slave to the herders because of second term ambition,” Igboho said.
