Another group from the South-East, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has praised Fayose for his courage.
IPOB also asked Governors in the South-East to also emulate the Ekiti state Governor, so the Fulani herdsmen menace can be nipped in the bud.
Fayose blamed President Buhari, who he referred to as the patron of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, for not calling his people to order.
