Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke's Swift Action Promotes Peace Amidst Ifon-Ilobu Land Dispute.
In a commendable display of leadership, Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke, has taken decisive steps to quell tensions and promote peace in the wake of a land dispute between the communities of Ilobu and Ifon-Orolu. The Governor's recent imposition of a curfew in the affected areas has garnered praise for his commitment to maintaining law and order.
The conflict arose following a tragic incident in which a farmer named Sodiq lost his life in a disputed land dispute, heightening tensions in the region. However, Governor Adeleke wasted no time in addressing the situation.
The announcement of the curfew was made through the Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, Hon Kolapo Alimi. According to the statement, the curfew will be in effect from 8pm to 6am daily in the local governments of Orolu and Irepodun, where the dispute is centered. This temporary restriction on human and vehicular movement is aimed at preventing further violence and safeguarding lives and property.
Governor Adeleke, while taking these measures, also called for unity and peaceful coexistence between the two local governments involved. He emphasized the importance of maintaining the state's reputation for peace, love, and unity, encouraging residents to embrace these values.
Furthermore, the Governor made it clear that anyone found violating the curfew in Irepodun and Orolu local governments would face appropriate legal action. This stern stance is meant to deter individuals from engaging in activities that could exacerbate the situation.
Governor Adeleke's quick response and commitment to preserving peace in the face of adversity have been widely commended by both residents and observers. His dedication to the wellbeing of the affected communities stands as a testament to his leadership and desire for harmony among the people of Osun State.
