A serving house of representative member from Ondo State, Hon. Gboluga Ikengboju, has appealed to Ikale youths, most especially in Okitipupa Local Government Area to cease fire and allow peace to reign.
Gboluga who was not complacent with the wanton destruction of public properties urged the protesters to eschew the acts.
In a release by his media aide, Oyeniyi Iwakun, quoted Gboluga has saying that: "peaceful protest is constitutional and as the people's representative reiterates his support for genuine agitations"
The statement reads partly, "The looting and destruction of property as experienced across Okitipupa LGA yesterday isn't the best for us at a moment we are struggling for development in Ikaleland"
"The Police Station, Local Government Secretariat, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Nigeria Correctional Service (NCS) Building, High Court, Free Shuttle Buses, Ministry of transportation, and many others vandalized and razed are critical infrastructures meant to serve the masses and not any politician or individual in position of authority"
"The attack on private property is also condemnable and doesn't reflect what the Ikale youth stands for.
However the renowned pharmacist appealled to Ikale youths to embrace peace and be vigilant to checkmate hoodlums who are bent at destroying our common heritage even as he calls on political, traditional and religious leaders to intervene.
