Igboho while reacting via his Twitter handle in the late night of Saturday, January 23, Igboho asked whether it was not a crime for herdsmen to kill a farmer, Dr. Fatai Aborode after invading his farm.
Our message to people is simple; come out of our bushes, we don't permit people to live in our forests! Very simple.

He tweeted: “And it’s not a crime to kill doctor Akorede? whose farm was invaded and destroyed by Fulani cows, later went to Seriki Fulani house to lay complain, but was tied and butchered and nothing happened?”
He, however, said he is not intimidated by IGP’s arrest order, saying that he and his people are more prepared for the battle ahead.
Igboho said: “We are not afraid of you. We are more prepared than you think. We can not be intimidated in our own land.”
