The Oodua People’s
Congress (OPC) has commended the Department of State Services (DSS) for the arrest
of Boko Haram suspects in the commercial nerve centre of the nation, Lagos
State, reports ITRealms.
The commendation was
contained in a statement on Sunday by the National Coordinator of the OPC,
Otunba Gani Adams.
The DSS had on
Tuesday said it arrested four Boko Haram members in Lagos.
The secret service said
the Boko Haram members, who fled from Borno State, were arrested in Oko Oba
area of Lagos State.
Commenting on the
development, Adams praised the DSS and sent out further warnings to criminal
elements in the South West and other States with OPC presence that they would
not be allowed to fester.
Adams said his group was
on the alert to combat any untoward development or atrocity by Boko Haram
members.
“This is also to warn
those who are out to cause division within the rank of the Yoruba speaking
people of the South West and North Central States that their antics would be
resisted.
“We as a group are out
to ensure the unity of the Yoruba race as this is the only way to maintain the
cohesiveness that exists at present.
“As such, dissidents who
feel they can use the opportunity of the dialogue platform being created among
the Yoruba race, especially for and by our revered monarchs, to cause disunity
will not only have their moves truncated but disgraced and exposed for who they
are.
"Adams called for
vigilance among Yoruba speaking people so as not to allow “the enemy infiltrate
to wreck havoc.”
