ASP Tee-Leo Ikoro, a spokesman for the Ondo Police Command, said the police would not allow miscreants to utilize the demonstration to cause mayhem, as they did during the #ENDSARS demonstration.
The state governor, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, has already advised all Yoruba nation agitators to keep away from the state.
The people of the state, according to Governor Akeredolu, have chosen to remain in the Federal Republic of Nigeria as it is now.
He claimed that no section of the entire state, known and delimited as Ondo State, would allow any gathering or agitation that may imply, even tangentially, that the people support what he called “unthinking rabble-rousing.”
