Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Aare Onakakanfo of Yoruba land, Iba Gani Adams has again deplored Nigeria\u2019s insecurity, declaring that Yorubas are ready to defend themselves against terrorists.<\/p>\n

The traditional leader warned gunmen to stop testing the will of the region and the indigenes to prevent additional atrocities.<\/p>\n

Adams said the Southwest Security Stakeholders Group (SSSG), comprising the Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC) and others, will henceforth resist attacks.<\/p>\n

The Aare spoke on Tuesday during a visit to the Olowo of Owo kingdom, HRM Oba Ajibade Ogunoye.<\/p>\n

In a statement by his spokesman, Kehinde Aderemi, Adams assured that efforts were underway to forestall a repeat of the June 5 massacre.<\/p>\n

More than 40 worshippers died after gunmen opened fire at the St. Francis Catholic Church in Owo, Ondo State.<\/p>\n

The Federal Government announced that the Islamic State\u2019s West Africa Province (ISWAP) was responsible.<\/p>\n

Adams said the incident remained the most devastating experience of terrorism in Yoruba modern history.<\/p>\n

The chief recalled issuing a statement to console the king and the people, reiterating his support to make the town safe.<\/p>\n

\u201cI also wrote a letter informing the United Nations Secretary General, Mr. Antonio Guterres of the need to prevent further calamity capable of destroying Nigeria, like what happened in Bosnia,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Adams added that the memo was addressed to the international community and the State Security Departments across the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis time around, the Yoruba are more united; we are not cowards. In Yoruba land, we have never lost any war.<\/p>\n

\u201cTherefore, we are not going to relent or relax until we get rid of terrorists across the Southwest\u201d, he vowed.<\/p>\n

Oba Ogunoye thanked Adams for the struggle to defend the region and blamed the high rate of insecurity on the federal system of government.<\/p>\n

The monarch stressed that the establishment of State police would ensure internal security of the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cOwo people are prepared to defend themselves against external aggressors\u201d, he asserted.<\/p>\n
