The Coalition of Northern Groups, CNG, has warned the Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland, Otunba Gani Adams, against attacking and killing Northerners in the South-West
CNG said the warning became necessary following Gani Adams’ recent comments alleging that the killing of over 50 people in Igangan town, Ibarapa in Oke-Ogun Area of Oyo State was a declaration of war on the Yoruba by the Northerners.

The group gave the warning in a statement by its Spokesperson, Abdul-Azeez Suleiman.
“Any attack against Northerners in any part of the South for the only reason that they are Northerners living as minorities in other communities would not be acceptable,” the group said.
“We find it outrageous for Adams to so readily attribute the attacks to the North whereas the actual attackers have not yet been officially identified.
“For Adams to just jump to such a conclusion that the attacks were carried out by the North and even call it a declaration of war speaks volumes of the mindset of the typical Southerner against the entire Northern region”, the CNG stated.
