It is with grief that President Bola Tinubu received the news of the killing of two traditional rulers in Ekiti State, the Onimojo of Imojo-Ekiti, Oba Olatunde Samuel Olusola, and the Elesun of Esun-Ekiti, Oba David Babatunde Ogunsola.
President Tinubu condemned this mindless and brutal bloodletting, and pledged that the perpetrators will not escape justice.
The President condoled with the families and subjects of the traditional rulers, Governor Biodun Oyebanji, and the people of Ekiti State on this deeply agonizing development.
In the same vein, the President directed the immediate rescue of pupils and teachers kidnapped around Eporo-Ekiti area of the State.
As security of life and property is the primary responsibility of government, President Tinubu assured Nigerians that the nation’s security architecture is being robustly fortified for better and expected outcomes.
