If there is anyone who wants to be violent, we will tell them, no.”On the proposed rally fixed for October 1 by some youths, he said they reserved the rights to stage the rally, but warned against violence.”The leader of the Movement for the Oduduwa Republic, Mr. Akin George, stressed on unity among the Yoruba.
