I am from Igbo-ora. Federal government of Nigeria or Oyo State government should increase the road security along Abeokuta – Igboora – Eruwa – Maya – Iseyin road. That is one of the deadliest road in Nigeria to travel on with high rate of insecurity. Rest in peace Oko Oloyun.

If rich men like Oko Oloyun can be killed without any resistance, how much more the poor masses who lack affluence?
How much more the poor villages?
The peaceful coexistence that once existed in this country is gone
