Some gunmen have invaded Iganga town in Ibadan North Local Government Area of Oyo State, causing heavy damages in the town, The Vent Republic gathered.
The Vent Republic learnt that the gunmen who were suspected to be Fulani herdsmen invaded the town around 11.pm on Saturday and left the town around 3.am on Sunday.
A Daily Post correspondent gathered that during the invasion, several residents of the town were killed.
Sources within the town told DAILY POST Sunday morning have maintained that the number of lives lost during the invasion have not been ascertained.
The residents claimed that it was Fulani herdsmen that invaded the town, though it has not been confirmed if it was Fulani herdsmen that invaded the town as claimed by the residents.
Oladiran Oladokun, Convener of Igangan Development Advocate (IDA), confirmed the attack to DAILY POST on Sunday.
Oladokun who confirmed the killing of many residents during the attack, however, said that the number of casualties have not been confirmed.
He alleged that the invasion was due to the banishment of the Seriki Fulani in the town.
He added that Fulani herdsmen had been threatening to attack the town since the Seriki Fulani was banished from the town.
“Are you calling in respect of Iganga incident? That is how we saw it.
“It was the Fulani herdsmen that have been threatening to come and attack Iganga because of the Seriki Saliu that we sent away from the town.
“So, we have been receiving threats and they carried out their threat midnight.
“They operated between 11.pm on Saturday till around 3.am today (Sunday).
“We can’t count casualties now because it was not safe for anybody to come out now.
“So, it was during daybreak that some people are coming out from bushes where they ran to. We are still counting.”

How I wish the whole South can unite and arm themselves against this fulani terrorists.. These people are evil. Rip to the dead

So Where's Amotekun

Na wa o! The 5 invaders killed when the local hunters and amotekun corps came out to confront them are identified to be fulanis.

It's like they knew that most the able bodied men had travelled to Ekiti for igboho's oduduwa republic agitation and those around are mostly aged, women and young ones.
