The Paramount Ruler of Iwoland, His Imperial Majesty, Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has reaffirmed the historical security sanctity of Osun State, insisting that the peace and harmony the state is known for remain unshaken despite rumours of a bandit attack along the Iwo–Osogbo road.
He dismissed the reported incident as false, stating clearly that no attack occurred and challenging anyone with proof to come forward.
“The report of the bandit attack along Iwo-Osogbo road yesterday was not true. It was a blatant lie confabulated to discredit the route. Osun State remains a peaceful state.
“The historical harmony of Osun is strong. Osun is the most peaceful state. No fake news should be allowed to fly. There was no bandit attack along Iwo-Osogbo road yesterday. I challenge anyone with evidence of an attack to present it. Be assured, Iwo is secured under my reign. If there is any attack, I will be there myself to defend my people.”
Oluwo urged residents to remain security conscious and continue supporting security agencies responsible for safeguarding lives and property.
