LG crisis: Don’t set Oyo ablaze, Ibadan Mogajis tell Buhari, Malami

The Mogajis maintained that the government’s position became imperative following the threats of violence by the sacked illegal chairmen and the stay-at-home order issued to all local government workers in the state by the National Union of Local Government Employees (NULGE). According to the family heads, Oyo State has been peaceful and there is need for government to maintain the peaceful atmosphere in the state. The Mogajis said: “We are amazed with the latest development on the issue of local government in our dear Oyo State. We wonder when it becomes the role of the Attorney General of the Federation to determine who leads local government areas. “It is imperative to note that we have 33 local gov-ernment areas in Oyo State not 68 as election was held in those LCDAs, which made the election null and void councils, the Attorney General will be held responsible for giving questionable order.
