Yoruba nation activists have begun to arrive at the popular Fajuyi Park in Ado Ekiti for a rally organised by socio-political group, Ilana Omo Oodua.
There is heavy presence of security operatives including police, Department of State Services and Amotekun Corps at the venue.
A security operative, who preferred anonymity, said they are at the venue to prevent the breakdown of law and order and ensure miscreants do not hijack the rally.
The agitators also expressed their readiness for Yoruba nation out of Nigeria.
One of the agitators and member of Oodua Action Movement, Olusola Oyemakinde, said they were there in support of their agitation for Oodua nation. Every one of them can see the state of Nigeria whereby there is no justice, there is lopsidedness and insecurity are the order of the day.
According to him, the government of Nigeria has failed in its responsibility of securing lives and they cannot continue this way. Yoruba nation is the answer for them.
