The Olowu of Kuta in Ayedire Local Government area of Osun state, Oba Adekunle Oyelude Makama has sent a message of condolence to the government and people of Borno state over Saturday’s massacre of scores of farmers by Boko Haram terrorists.
Oba Oyelude made the call in a statement on Monday declaring that the mass murder of the farmers was a national calamity which must be condemned by all.
The Oba who described the killings as tragic and regrettable called on all Nigerians to fortify the people of the North East and our security forces with prayers and support to be able to defeat the insurgents.
While commiseratng with Borno State governor, Babagana Zulum on the horrific incident, the monarch stressed the need for the entire country to show more than a passing interest in what is happening in the north east by supporting the military in the onerous assignment of finally defeating the insurgents.
It will be recalled that the Oba Makama recently wondered why Borno has remained the odd one out of the states in the North East in terms of testoration of peace calling on the elders there to rise up and join government in finding solutions to insurgency there.
Kabiesi further says ” it’s Callous to mix the pathetic issues at hand with your age long project of Service Chiefs Removal “
The Federal Government should as a matter of urgency double our Defence budget for our Armed forces, because with the right funding we’re confident in the army leadership and men to end the insurgency in no distant time.
