Osun State Chapter Traditional Religion Worshippers Association (TRAWSO) has issued a note of warning that the JTF alone is not capable of fighting and winning the terror campaigns of the Boko Haram in the North.
TRAWSO said it would only carry out some sacrifices which would force the insurgents to lay down their arms, if Federal Government was ready to opt for their intervention.
Chief Awopetu Idowu, who is the leader of the traditionalists stated this at a press conference which was organized as part of activities marking this year’s Isese Day, 20th of August 2013.
Chief Awopetu contended that rather than attribute the want on destruction of lives and properties that the country has witnessed since the insurgency commenced in 2009 on religion as the members and leaders of the radical sect had claimed, the massacre of innocent Nigerian has political undertone and, therefore, charged the Federal Government to formally approach traditional worshipers to solve the problem.
Pitching his tent with him was the president, the chairman of the Board of Trustees of the association, Chief Ifayemi Elebuibon, who also said the insecurity facing the country could be resolved without the use of fire arms as there was appeasement that could be made to make members of the sect lay down their arms.
