True — this claim is accurate as a reported allegation. A Yoruba socio‑cultural group publicly accused two Kwara monarchs of aiding terrorists and demanded the closure of a cattle market.

What actually happened
According to a May 5, 2026 report from Sahara Reporters, the pan‑Yoruba socio‑cultural group Ìgbìnmó Májékóbájé Ilé‑Yorùbá issued a statement accusing:

Oba Ismail Atoloye Alebiosu, the traditional ruler of Ajase‑Ipo

Oba Aliyu Yusuf Arojojoye, the monarch of Babanla

of allegedly aiding terrorists by refusing to shut down the Kara cattle market in Ijase‑Ipo, Kwara State. The group claimed the market had become a cover for criminal elements involved in kidnappings and violent attacks.

The group also alleged that the monarchs were not cooperating with security agencies and described their actions as a betrayal of Yoruba communities affected by insecurity. They called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to order the immediate closure of the market.
