A total of 114 northerners bave been expelled from Ondo state by Amotekun security outfit.
The northerners were deported from the Southwest state for allegedly entering Ondo state forest illegally.
This was revealed by Adetunji Adeleye, the State Commander of Amotekun, in a press briefing on Sunday.
He said the individuals who were being transported in two trucks were bound for distribution across the state’s forest areas, including the Ore and Ofosu regions.
The Amotekun commander said the state governor had issued a directive to evacuate all individuals who could not justify a legitimate reason for being in the state’s deep forests.
Adeleye said while Nigeria guarantees freedom of movement, it must be done with a legitimate purpose. He also said that the state governor had ordered their return to their places of origin.
