CityNews Nigeria reports that the governor of Oyo State, southwest Nigeria, Seyi Makinde, has ordered the Police to arrest Sunday Igboho and others causing tension in the state.

Governor Makinde stressed that the war Oyo and security agencies need to wage is not against any particular ethnic group but against criminal elements, irrespective of their tribes, religions, or creed.
