Against the back drop of announcements that have been on air for couple of days concerning the planned invocation of ‘god of iron’ (ogun) curses on perpetrators of the dastardly attack on the Catholic Church in Owo some days ago, am directed to inform the general public that, though,the traditional step being taken by the worried stakeholders in the community, concerns all and sundry in the land, which hitherto require the cooperation of everybody, this scheduled traditional step does not in any way disturb the normal daily routine of inhabitants and visitors alike in the ancient town, as there would be no restrictions to human and vehicular movements.
Please note that, even the designated areas where the people incharge of the invocation are to perform the necessary rituals, are also free for movements but it is only that, there would be strict traffic control.
To this end, no member of the public is disturbed from carrying out his or her lawful economic and social activities as the programme will only last for one hour.
Therefore, you are advised to go about your daily life activities without any molestation what so ever.
Signed:
SAM ADEWALE,
