Some members of the group had stormed the residence of one Yeye Adesikemi Olokun Omolara Olatunji in Ilorin to warn her against organising the festival.
While reacting to the report, the Kwara State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Ajayi Okasanmi Jeffrey, told our correspondent that the command is yet to be notified of the warning but will find out the crux of the matter
He said, “Kwara Police Command has not received any official report from any citizens concerning the warning to Yeye Olokun you referred to.” Ajayi also reiterated the command’s prompt action to forestall any face-off that could arise between the Muslim community and the Traditionalists in the state as a result of the ban.Kindly share this story:
