IBADAN NORTH-EAST LG CALLS FOR CALMNESS, URGES CITIZENS TO BE LAW ABIDING.
Following the hullabaloo that ensued from the well pronounced scarcity of premium motor spirit (petrol) and NAIRA that was witnessed in many parts of Ibadan, the Oyo state capital especially at areas belonging to Ibadan North East Local Government, Hon Ibrahim Akinsola Akintayo, the executive chairman of Ibadan North East LG had called on all residents and citizens of the LG to remain calm and conduct themselves in a civil manner.
Reaching out to the people of the LGA, the council boss wants the people to know that the government was aware of their sufferings and shared from their pains due to the untold hardship being witnessed in respect of scarcity of fuel and naira which was an infringement on their human rights.
However, the LG helmsman pleaded that taken laws into our hands or destroying properties thereby creating unrest in our midst would not bring solution to any of our problems right now, but we should learn to flow in civility and endured the more, thus, hope in the almighty God and make sure we fight our way into better life by getting ready our voter's cards for the ballot to put good governance in place.
Further, Hon. Akintayo commended the governor of Oyo state, Engr. Dr. Seyi Makinde for being an awesome leader for his concern and sharing from the plights of the people, even, providing palliative in terms of free transportation for the people and putting security in place to ameliorate the negative effect that the present said scarcity could further have on the state of the people.
Hon. Akintayo, Omu-yes! as fondly called implored the people of Ibadan North East LG to be highly informed that for now, the people would witness continous patrolling of security agents across the length and breagth of the LG and that they should endeavor to call the security hot line "615" if any criminal activity or security breach is perceived, urging them to embrace peace and go about their businesses without fear of any molestation, and assuring that more palliative measures to help the people were still on the way.
