The Ekiti State Government has begun a process of mediation in the boundary dispute between Ilasa Ekiti and Alu community in Kogi State, calling on the two towns to exercise restraint on the crisis-ridden land to avert unwarranted communal clash.
Acting on the letter, the Ekiti State Deputy Governor, Mrs. Monisade Afuye, yesterday invited the Alasa of Ilasa, Oba Oluwasesan Ajayi, and the owners of the affected land to begin a process through which the matter could be nipped in the bud without snowballing into a bloody clash. “Ekiti State won’t allow whatever that is due to any community legitimately to be taken to another state and we would not also want our people to forcefully take away what doesn’t belong to them. So, let us wait for the action that will be taken by the federal government on the matter.
Afuye, had while interfacing with the communities, directed the Elesure, Oba Adebanji Ajibola, and Olomu, Oba Oluwadamilare Ojo, to cooperate with the committee to broker truce on the matter.
