“It could be recalled that, on 18th May, 2023, the suspect, Kehinde Adekusibe, on his Twitter handle, tweeted, “Let’s kill all the Igbos. Let’s flush them out of Yoruba lands.

“I hate these people with passion. They are violent people. They are the worst. They hate us. Let’s hate them without holding back.”
