From now on, you have to be very careful. If I have my way and Kabiyesi allows me, any Oba who allows kidnappers to operate in his area will be arrested because you know about them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no way you cannot know about people living in your area,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The Apena called on the traditional rulers to be ready to work with the Alake, a retired military officer, in order to get rid of criminals from Egbaland.<\/p>\n<p>He also tasked the youths to wake up and sustain the records of the Egbas in leadership positions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo you Egba youths, it is time to go to work. Gone were the days that we claimed that the best lawyer was from Egbaland, the President from Egbaland, the Speaker from Egbaland. What are we doing to keep such records going? So, the youths, let\u2019s wake up and make sure we keep the flag flying,\u201d Bankole said.<\/p>\n<p>He promised Alake his loyalty and commitment to the development of Egbaland.<\/p>\n<p>Dignitaries at the occasion include former Ogun State governor and Senator representing Ogun East, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, his predecessor, Chief Segun Osoba, Former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Dimeji Bankole and the immediate past High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, Sarafa Ishola.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
