Igboho gives Iru Ekun vigilantes shoot-to-kill order

Yoruba activist, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho, has directed members of his Iru Ekun Security Network to kill armed bandits and kidnappers encountered in forests and along highways.

Igboho gave the directive on Tuesday while inaugurating the Ondo State chapter of the group, according to Peoples Gazette.

He also warned members against attacking innocent Igbo and Hausa traders, stressing that all Nigerians should be protected.

Igboho said handing suspected criminals to the police could allow them to return to crime after serving jail terms.

He urged members to report armed bandits to nearby Divisional Police Officers and eliminate them if encountered.
