ILANA OMO OODUA unequivocally backs and supports the series of rallies and street marches being planned by various Yoruba and non-Yoruba groups, locally and internationally, to commemorate the 28th anniversary of the iconic June 12, 1993 presidential elections.
The rallies holding tomorrow are designed to be like the series of rallies and street marches which blew in fiery storms all over Yorubaland; through Ibadan, Abeokuta, Osogbo, Akure and Ado-Ekiti.
All these rallies were peaceful and fantastically well organised. The police and all other security agencies cooperated with us in all these places to ensure that the demonstrations did not resort to violence in any form.
We expect the Police and security team, especially, in Lagos State to exhibit the same level of maturity and candour we met at the other venues where we conducted our earlier rallies tomorrow.
Our people, as usual, are encouraged to come out gaily dressed in Oodua Nation colours and vests or Omoluabi white and to carry the Yoruba flag while singing the Ogo Adulawo, Yoruba Nation national anthem with zest and gutso.
We are presently in a mourning mood after the unprovoked heinous and dastardly attack unleashed on our people at Igangan in Oyo State by sponsored Fulani Terrorists.
We have not forgotten!
This further reinforces the resolve of Yoruba people to leave Nigeria to form a civilised nation of our own.
