The caucus noted that the action, carried out by acclaimed Yoruba Nation Agitators, has caused unrest and posed a threat to the peace and stability of the South-west region.

“As representatives of the people, we stand firmly against any form of unlawful behavior and violence that undermines the rule of law and the unity of our country, Nigeria.

The agitators, who the Nigeria Army said wore Foreign Military Uniform and berets, invated the State Secretariat, Ibadan on Saturday with dangerous weapons. They brought down the Nigeria Flag and hoisted that of the Yoruba Nation.

Troops of the Nigeria Army eventually overpowered them with superior firepower and arrested nine of them in the process. They also recovered some arms, and are on the trail of those who escaped.
