Governor Bello Matawalle has condemned the ongoing violence on a northern community in Ibadan, Oyo State capital.
He also frowned at the act of ethnic discrimination and regional dichotomy.
Governor Matawalle who was in Ibadan on Sunday afternoon to sympathize with victims of ethnic attacks called on President Muhammadu Buhari to take decisive action on the spate of violence gripping some south-western states and which is gradually turning into criminality.
The governor’s visit was contained in a press statement signed and made available to newsmen in Gusau by his Special Adviser on media and public enlightenment, Hon. Zailani Bappa.
The governor noted that ethnic hate and regional dichotomy will not lead anybody to whatever they think they can gain out of it but backwardness and doom.
He called on President Muhammadu Buhari to take a decisive step towards ending the ethnic profiling of the Fulani tribe in some parts of the country which is now graduating to include the entire northern communities, especially in Oyo State.
