Stampede: Parents Who Smuggled Kids To Ibadan Event Should Be Held Responsible Femi Branch

Actor Femi Branch has shared his thoughts on the stampede in Ibadan, Oyo state capital, last week which resulted in the deaths of over 40 people, mostly children.

The stampede occurred at an event held at Islamic High School in the Bashorun area.

The event, organised by Naomi Silekunola, ex-wife of Ooni of Ife, was intended to cater to 5,000 attendees.

But news of a free entry with promises of gifts and scholarships spread quickly, attracting a large crowd.

On the eve of the event, hundreds had camped around the school to ensure they made it to the venue on time.
