On May 18, 2023, Kehinde Adekusibe used his Twitter handle to call for the killing of individuals from the southeastern region residing in Yoruba land.

He tweeted “Let’s kill all the Igbos. Let’s flush them out of Yoruba lands. I hate these people with a passion. They are violent people. They are worst. They hate us. Let’s hate them without holding back”.

In a statement on Friday, June 16, the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Opalola Yemisi Olawoyin said his action was considered a violation of the social media policy on hate speech.

Olawoyin said Kahinde confessed to the crime after he was arrested on Thursday, adding that the suspect would be charged in court after the investigation is completed.
