Igangan Killings: See how South West Governors React
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The South West Governors’ Forum has condemned the attack on the people of Igangan, Oyo State.

According to the Police report, the gruesome attack happened on June 5, 2021 at about 2310hrs.

Suspected armed bandits in their numbers invading Igangan Community in the dead of the night to unleash mayhem on unsuspecting members.

“In the process, Eleven (11) persons including some of the assailants were confirmed dead, while some vehicles and buildings including the Palace of the Asigangan of Igangan town and a filling station were torched.”

In a statement titled Igangan Provocative Onslaught One Too Many, issued by the South West Governors’ Forum. The chairman and Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, said:

“We have just received with rude shock a premeditated attack on our people at Igangan, Ibarapa, Oyo State, in the early hours of today. This cowardly onslaught on a peaceful community has occasioned loss of lives and property on a large scale. It is horrendous, callous, and highly provocative. All well-meaning Nigerians must condemn, in the strongest term possible, this latest assault on decency and communal harmony.

“While we will encourage the security agencies to get to the root of this latest act of provocation, we have directed the Commanders of the South West Security Network, Amotekun, to convoke a joint security meeting of all Commanders in the South West with a view to commencing joint operations in the region immediately.

“We must reiterate the fact that certain elements are bent on causing friction among the peoples of this country with the sole aim of achieving a pernicious end. They will stop at nothing until their set goal is realized. It is, therefore, incumbent on all lovers of peace and freedom to rise against this current regression into savagery.

“We on our part are resolved to defend our people, their property, and all legitimate means of livelihood against both internal and external aggression. On this, there will be no compromise. We call on our people to remain vigilant and report any suspicious movement in their communities. In addition, they must be united in the task of defending our lives and properties.

“We cannot afford to fail.”
