The paramount ruler of Iwo land, Osun State, Oba Abdulrosheed Akanbi, has called on political office holders, who looted the nation’s treasury to repent and return the funds.
According to a Wednesday statement by his Press Secretary, Alli Ibraheem, Oluwo also asked that those who sacrificed for the country’s democracy should be celebrated.
He said, “Democracy has come to stay. Those who have looted and done evil to Nigeria should repent. Some of them have died while many are still here. Those alive should return the loot voluntarily. Our individual sacrifice and humility are needed to strengthen our democracy.”
He noted that Nigeria’s democracy is now different from the usual.
“The agitators in the South-East and South-West should be moderate in their conduct. Let’s come together to strengthen this democracy and safeguard the future of our children.
“Coup is gone and gone forever in Nigeria. The era of looting with impunity has gone too. Democracy is beautiful with a mentally alert president.
“Nigerians are assured under our workaholic President, the dividends of democracy will multiply. I advised the government to subsidise health and housing for the masses,” he added.
Oluwo noted that President Bola Tinubu was surprising everyone with his policies and he should be supported.
He added that Tinubu started well by challenging policies such as fuel subsidy, naira redesign, among others.
