Those Northerners Killed In Oyo Should Better Be Buried There, Don’t Send Their Corpse To Kano

We all know the current situation that is happening in the South, Oyo state precisely, how the Yoruba and Hausa people are clashing. Well a man with the user name Adamu Hayatu took to his Twitter account to make a statement by saying: Those Northerners killed in Oyo should better be buried there, Don’t send their corpses to Kano. See screenshot of his statement below.

 

I understand the angle he is going, because bringing them back will only end up creating more issues within the country so it will be better to bury them there instead of bringing back their remains. This is sad and heartbreaking I just pray that this whole situation will end and peace will be in Oyo state. 

I really don’t know what led to the issues, but crisis should not be the solution to any problem, let learn to co-exist with each other.
