Yoruba nation activist, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, has unveiled plans to convene a security summit for traditional rulers across the South West as the Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Adeyeye Ogunwusi, threw his weight behind the Iru Ekun Security Network with a donation of N100 million and a brand new Toyota Hilux vehicle.
Igboho said the proposed summit, to be hosted by the Ooni in Ile Ife, would bring together monarchs from across the South West to deliberate on security, regional unity and other strategic issues aimed at protecting and advancing the collective interests of Yorubaland.
The activist also praised the Ooni’s financial and logistical support for the newly launched security outfit, describing it as a clear demonstration of the monarch’s commitment to strengthening community-based security initiatives and ensuring lasting peace across the region.
In a statement issued on Wednesday by his media office, Igboho, who launched the Iru Ekun Security Network in Osogbo, the Osun State capital, on Tuesday, said traditional institutions remain indispensable partners in safeguarding communities and tackling insecurity in the South West.
