A Southwest group, Yoruba Youth Socio-cultural Association (YYSA), has expressed shock over the killing of Mrs. Funke Olakunrin, daughter of Afenifere Chairman, Pa Reuben Fasoranti, by persons suspected to be herdsmen in Ondo State.<\/p>\n
In a statement signed by its National President, Olalekan Hammed, the group gave the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association (MACBAN) a three-day ultimatum to fish out the perpetrators of the nefarious act.<\/p>\n
DAILY POST recalls that the murder of the daughter of Pa Fasoranti\u2018s daughter was confirmed by Afenifere\u2019s spokesman, Mr. Yinka Odumakin in a statement.<\/p>\n
He said 58-year-old Mrs. Olakunrin was killed by persons suspected to be herdsmen while heading to Ore Junction from Akure, Ondo State, where she was attacked and shot by her attackers.<\/p>\n
But the Ondo state police command refuted Odumakin\u2019s claim, saying it was an armed robbery attack.<\/p>\n
However, the YYSA said it will convene an emergency meeting on Saturday (today) to discuss next line of action after the ultimatum to MACBAN elapses.<\/p>\n
The statement reads: \u201cWe receive the news of the sudden death of Mrs. Olakunrin with great shock.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe want the federal government to order immediate investigation on the matter because the culprits should not go unpunished.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe also give the so-called Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association (MACBAN), Ondo State chapter, three days to fish out the suspected killers of Mrs. Olakunrin.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are having an emergency meeting tomorrow (today) in Ibadan to discuss the next line of action.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mrs. Olakunrin is the second child of 94-year-old Fasoranti to die, the elder statesman having also lost a daughter, Bunmi, some years ago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
