The duo of Chief Saliu Awesu Seriki, Musulumi of Akungba Akoko and chief Saliu Okoja, the Majekobaje of Ikare Akoko in a chat with our correspondent noted that the youths abhored violence and vandalism thereby protecting the legacies of the elders.
They described the nation wide protest as legitimate and an eye opener for government to do more for the citizenry in area of welfare and security.
Unanimously they condemned mayhem that led to burning of public and personal property in some parts of Ondo state.
On his own part, another Akoko community leader, Chief Ladi Bello, gave kudos for the way media houses in Ondo state reported the protests without too much sensation that can escalate the situation.
Ladi also called for adequate compensation for all the victims of the protest including security agents, youths and prosperity owners.
The elders welcome the lifting of ban on 24 hour curfew imposed on Ondo state by Governor Rotimi Akeradolu as this will go a long way to bring peace and bring socio-economic activities of the state back to life.
