As a result of the renewed communal clash, three persons died, a development which prompted the Osun State Government to reimpose a dusk to dawn curfew on both communities beginning from Tuesday.

According to Alimi, the resolutions endorsed and approved by all the stakeholders are as follows:

“That any person or group of persons in possession of firearms and ammunition should surrender such ammunition within 24 hours from today, 1st February, 2024, to the nearest police or security formations.JAMB Portal

“That the police authority in the state has been mandated to invite for interrogation, all those who made themselves available as chiefs or custodians of the disputed areas;

“A 16-man Resolution committee has been established by the Osun State government to sit and work out an amicable way(s) of settling the entire issues at stake;

“That the Committee is to submit its findings in two weeks time, with the 15th of February, 2024 given as the deadline.”

The high powered security committee set up by Osun state Government, however, maintained that the 6pm to 6 am curfew earlier imposed is still in place and all security personnel were to remain where they are to ensure lasting peace in the warring communities.NYSC PORTAL

DAILY POST also gathered that the stakeholders’ meeting resolved that anybody found with arms and ammunition in the area after the deadline should be arrested and prosecuted.

“Anyone or group of persons found or caught still instigating any further violence, to mortgage lasting peace being envisioned in the warring communities would be made to face the full wrath of the law,” the statement concluded.
