Ooni of Ife Reacts to #Endsars Protesters, Asks Them to Stay Off the Roads

Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, also known as the Ooni of Ife, has pleaded with the #EndSARS protesters to stop the protests for now.

According to him, these protesters should at least give peace a chance. He made this known in a recent submission at his Ile Oodua Palace, Ile-Ife.

In his submission, he said;

“If you look at the #EndSARS protest, you will see that our youths have what it takes to rule the country. Since day one, they have shown leadership, accountability and huge sense of responsibility which have sent a clear message to the government.

Every day at 11:50 pm, they displayed their financial update, and to me, I’m highly amazed with their sense of accountability.

As a youth leader myself, I am proud that we all have communicated our ideas and it is heartwarming that we have been heard.

Dear youths, it is time to retreat so as to prevent those with ulterior motives from hijacking the peaceful message of peace.

The whole world is aware of our peaceful conduct and we must not let some bad elements tarnish this enviable integrity.

Once again, I wish to urge our youths to stop the protest, for now, and give peace a chance. This will prevent the government from using force.”
