However, Comrade Abdulhakeem Alawuje, the National President of YWG, emphasized the importance of addressing criminality without resorting to ethnic generalizations. Alawuje cautioned Igboho against escalating tensions through inflammatory rhetoric directed at Fulani residents.

The statement underscores the YWG’s commitment to promoting peace and unity within the South-West region, advocating for a holistic approach to addressing security challenges without stoking ethnic divisions.
