Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has described the arrests made by the police after the clash between Yoruba and Hausa people in Ile-Ife as one-sided.<\/p>\n
Recall that DAILY POST reported a violent clash between Hausa settlers and Yoruba indigenes in the ancient town of Ile-Ife, on Wednesday March 8 that left no fewer than five people dead.<\/p>\n
The police yesterday paraded those that were said to have allegedly contributed to the escalation of the violent clash.<\/p>\n
The Federal Government had during the weekend, said that the clash had nothing to do with ethnicity.<\/p>\n
Reacting to the arrest of the suspects, Fani-Kayode noted that the paraded suspects were all of Yoruba origin and wondered why no Hausa\/Fulani person involved in the clash was arrested.<\/p>\n
Fani-Kayode, via his Twitter handle, @realFFK, wrote, \u201cEvery suspect in the bloody Ife clash between the Yoruba and Hausa\/Fulani are Ifes.<\/p>\n
\u201cNot ONE Hausa Fulani has been arrested. UNACCEPTABLE.\u201d<\/p>\n
