A Fulani socio-cultural organisation, the Concerned Fulani People of Nigeria, calls on President Bola Tinubu and Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde, and in some accounts other South-West governors, to caution Yoruba nation agitator Sunday Adeyemo, known as Sunday Igboho. The group says Igboho’s statements targeting Fulani communities in Oyo State are inflammatory and could heighten ethnic tensions. The call comes after media reports that Igboho issued a two-hour ultimatum to Fulani leaders in Oyo State related to an allegation of abduction involving a woman and her children. The Concerned Fulani People of Nigeria warns that the situation risks escalation and urges federal and state authorities to intervene promptly to prioritise peace and unity while addressing security concerns in the region. The reports highlight ongoing fragility in ethnic relations in parts of Oyo State, where accusations of kidnapping and fears of reprisals have contributed to mutual suspicions between communities. As of the time of reporting, none of the outlets notes an immediate response from Igboho or from the named government officials.
