Following Wednesday’s crisis at Iwo Road, Ibadan, Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has promised to rid the area of cultists as well as review the state’s transport managers known as Park Management System (PMS).
Makinde made known these line of actions when, on Thursday, he toured the Iwo Road scene of the violence.
While condemning Wednesday’s violence, Makinde vowed to ensure that all those behind the Iwo Road incident is brought to book.
In the meantime, the Oyo governor said he had ordered investigations into the crisis.
With some phone sellers being victims in the crisis, Makinde said he will meet with them to determine what form of assistance they will receive.
