The Government of Ekiti State regrets the gruesome killing of two farmers in Isaba-Ekiti, Ikole Local Government. The dear departed are reported to have been industrious family men and community leaders who were popular and well loved by the community.
They were identified as Toyin Akeju a.k.a. Jisoro, and Mr. Yusuf Onoche a.k.a. Baba Owala. They did not deserve the fate that befell them.
We empathise with the Asaba of Isaba-Ekiti, HRH Oba Olanrewaju Oluwaseun Adeyanju, the families of our slain kinsmen, and the entire people of Isaba-Ekiti on this tragic occurrence, which has understandably led to demonstrations in protest of the killings.
