The committee said the feedback from the hoodlums would be tabled before the governor of the state in the coming week to discuss the way forward.

The statement further assured the people of the state of maximum security in few weeks time, saying “our intervention in a week has been yielding positive result.”

The statement reads in part: “Following our meeting with some of our family members who are engaging in some violence activities in Ibadan land, we have talked to them as our younger ones and they have agreed to a ceasefire. We, therefore, give the foreigners in the bush ultimatum to leave Oyo State.

“We are waiting for a final directive from the governor of the state to lead the troop to the bushes and flush them out. We are worried about the security challenges in the state, especially Ibadan land. We are happy with the feedback we received from our brothers in Ibadan land that the crisis would be soon over,” the statement said. (Nigerian Tribune)
