Ondo Herdsmen Saga: Adegboruwa faults presidency’s position
A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mr Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, has faulted the presidency’s opposition to the vacation order given to herdsmen in Ondo state by Governor Rotimi Akeredolu.
The senior advocate said the presidency misinterpreted sections of the constitution.
Adegboruwa said, he salutes the courage of the governor for displaying rare statesmanship and courage
What the law requires is seven days to forfeit the occupation of a place occupied illegally. It is the presidency that is not conversant with the laws of our land, not Akeredolu.
The senior advocate said section 44 of the Nigerian constitution is against compulsory takeover of lands.
He said what the herders are doing is forceful takeover of people’s land which is unconstitutional.
