Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, the Ooni of Ife, has confirmed that some terrorists are gradually moving into the southern region of the country.
The Ooni made this known during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Friday.
The monarch said the South-West region would face the evaders headlong and send them back.
When asked whether he had discovered the movement of terrorists in the South region, the Ooni said, “Yes, we have discovered that, and that’s the truth, and that’s the reason why we’re coming together.
“We are enforcing and strengthening our local guards; we are very strong. We, traditional institutions, we’re very strong when it comes to that.
“And this current government has already worked and declared that they will work with the local hunters. We have forest guards now; they’re very efficient.
“We don’t joke with them. We’re going back to our ancestral roots.
“So, for us, we are facing it headlong. We have intelligence information. They are coming closer to us, and we’re going to send them back.
“It has happened in the past. In the 18th Century, in the 17th Century; we have actually done that. We’ve never been conquered, and it’s not going to happen again.”
