NATIONAL YOUTH COUNCIL OF NIGERIA (YEWA NORTH BRANCH) For Immediate Release!
KILLING OF PROMISING YOUTHS BY KILLER HERDSMEN IN YEWA NORTH IS A THREAT TO THE FUTURE OF THE NATION.
Over the past few weeks, Yewa North local government in Ogun State has been under huge security threat, there has been several reports of lawless killing by armed Fulani herdsmen.
Just last week, a young man was murdered iho village in around Imeko Afon, some days ago the same rebellious group of herders attacked owode-ketu community in Yewa north where several lives were sent to the mother earth while many sustained various degrees of injuries. In the same vein over the night, this same evil doers attacked orile-igbooro community, korole village and part of Oja-odan town all in Yewa north local government to wreck havoc which also claimed lives of many helpless people.
As a youth movement, we have realised that 98% percent of the victims of this menace are young and promising Nigerians with lots of promising potentials in them and we won't just fold our arms and watch our constituents consumed by evil doers.
We therefore call on the federal, state and local government including security operatives to rise up to this challenges and provide the leadership expected of them on this disturbing issues.
A society which lives it's youth to be devoured is preparing for ruin. We must make hay while the sun shines.
