The leaders under the auspices of Akoko Consultative Forum (ACF), said the implication and intending fallout of, “the purported exercise is aimed at subjugating, marginalizing and killing Akoko politically. “

Addressing journalists in Akure, the state capital, the president of the ACF, Pa. Rogbitan Lawrence Ibukun, disclosed that the action of the “state government is to further put the Akokos in perpetual bondage in the scheme of things compared to Owo and Ose within the same Ondo  North Senatorial District. “

Flanked by the secretary of ACF, Mr. Benson Dada and other leaders from the Akokos, the ACF vowed not to accept the newly created LCDAs unless the government addressed the injustice in it.

The protesters wondered why the four (4)Akoko LGAs were allocated (9) Nine LCDAs while Owo and Ose with only two (2) LGAs were allocated Eight (8) LCDAs “which implies 2 is equal to 8 , and , 4 is equal to 9 !”
