After the traditional ruler was killed, no arrests was made and now the community leaders are being invited by the police for allegedly killing some cows following complaint by a herdsman .
Hear the President of the Ifon Development Union, Chief Femi Awani , “the police invitation was based on a petition by one Abdullahi who claimed his cows were killed .
it was surprising that the police are pursuing supposed killers of cows when it was yet to unravel those who killed our traditional ruler, the Olufon of Ifon since November last year.
Those invited fell within the group of leaders temporarily holding fort following the death of Oba Adeusi.”
