“Fight Ritual Killings With Amotekun”, Oluwo Of Iwo Tells South West Leaders

Oluwo of Iwo Emperor (Dr.) Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has advised South West leaders and Yoruba stakeholders on fights which they should channel the newly formed regional security outfit, Amotekun to.
Speaking in a statement released by his press secretary, Alli Ibraheem, Oluwo of Iwo drew the attention of the leaders to rampant ritual killings in the region, saying the killings are more deadlier and recurrent than the attacks from Fulani herdsmen.The monarch added that the killings is a failure on the part of government, traditional institution and other stakeholders given that there is no severe legislation enacted to punish the ritual killers and their accomplices.

Oluwo of Iwo then called on the Government to enact a law against ritual killers while adding that Amotekun should be empowered to combat and challenge the barbaric acts.“Amotekun as an institution should be made to fight traditional corruption most especially ritual killings consuming our children’s blood daily. There is blood of innocent people in the street. It is a failure on the part of government, traditional institution and other stakeholders that no severe legislation is enacted to punish ritual killers and their accomplice.
I’m not condemning Amotekun but better direction of job specification should be streamlined. It is disheartening we misplaced our priority. Tell me a day you don’t read in newspaper or hear on radio of innocent boys and girls been killed by ritual killers with part(s) removed? May be we want to traditionally legalize ritual killings or why so silence on the such acts perpetrated by fellow human? Or are we all beneficiaries of ritual killings?I want to charge all the stakeholders to streamline the activities of Amotekun to prioritize checkmating of ritual killings to protect innocent lives and enact death penalty for any culprit caught killing human for rituals. I’m not happy with ritual killers. They are not human. Government should help us by enacting a law against ritual killers. Whether male or female, anyone killed by ritual killer is my children. It must stop. Human are not animals that you slaughter, killed and dismembered. It is an aberration. Such is never part of any culture. We should empower Amotekun to challenge such barbaric act”Photos Credit: Instagram/Getty
