Man Kidnapped By Suspected Fulani Herdsmen In Edo, Recounts Ordeal by CastedDude: 9:10am On Mar 21, 2019
A Nigerian film maker and actor, Femi Ogedengbe, has taken to social media to narrate on behalf of a victim - his horrifying experience at the hands of gunmen alleged to be Fulani herdsmen over the weekend in Edo state.

Read the lengthy piece he shared on his Instagram page yesterday.

Oh Nigeria ! I weep… ARMED ROBBERY AND KIDNAPPING BY ARMED FULANI HERDSMEN ON ORE-BENIN EXPRESSWAY - OFOSU (INCIDENT HAPPENED AROUND 3 PM LAST SATURDAY MARCH 16, 2019). For my personal safety and to avoid a reprisal or repeat attack, God forbid, let me call myself Barrister A.

I was on my way to Jattu, near Auchi in Etsako West Local Government Area of Edo State Nigeria for my younger sister's traditional marriage billed to take place in Jattu.

I set out from Lagos and was having a very smooth ride until I entered Edo State. At Ofusu just before Okada Town, I noticed that the cars and tipper in front were driving in a zigzag manner. I applied my brakes and a sienna car that was beside me Also tried to brake and hit me on my side and forced me to hit the keb we struggled until the vehicles came to a halt. I raised my head to find out what was happening and got the scare of my life. Young Fulani men armed with AK47 riffles were shooting at us. I tried to reverse my car they were also behind shooting. A large number of vehicles were trapped in between.

As I tried to open my door one of them came to my side pointing an AK47 at me. I quickly raised up my hands and pleaded with him not to shoot. I gave him my wallet which he collected and put in his pocket.

As I was alighting from my car another Fulani man charged at me with his dagger. I begged him not to stab me. He pushed me to the side of the road and into the bush. They also took other people hostage.

We met the other abductees on the way lying face down. There were two women and five men. The men were being beaten with heavy sticks. They rode past them and took me to a tomatoes farm. I came down and was asked to sit down. I immediately obeyed. They warned me to stop looking at their faces or else they would kill me. I begged for my life like I have fever done before.

While seated one of them came to me told me "oga we done kidnap you and your money na N100 million". Unconsciously laughter escaped from my mouth and the guy said "oga if you laugh again I go kill you". I said "sorry oga na mistake I no laugh no vex". He asked how much I was ready to pay as ransom? I told him that I did not have money but that I could ask my brother to raise N500,000 for them. The guy said I was mad and that they did not come to the road for that kind of money and that the last they would take is N50million and that if I refused to pay they would kill me. I kept pleading.

They continued questioning all the abductees. I kept reciting Psalms 91 and 23 and was praying seriously under my breath. At a point they left us alone and went a distance from us. They were making calls.

Suddenly they returned and asked who could ride a bike amongst us. A young man amongst us said he could ride. One if them came to me and said take your phone. He returned one of my three phones taken from me. I could not believe my ears. He gave it to me and asked me to pocket it , and I did.

The young man started the bike and the instructed two of my co-abductees to carry me on the bike and said we should go straight that we will hit the Express road. The eight if us were released just like that. It was divine intervention. The release was after over three hours with them.

So this gullible fool believes it was the Psalms he recited that saved him.


What if the herdsmen got tipped that something had gone amiss in their operation & were equally desperate to leave that vicinity?
What if they were sent to get a specific person (hence the N100m ransom demand) & found out they had the wrong people?

There are so many things that could have prompted them to end their operation abruptly.

If God truly "saved you", why did God allow you to fall into such misfortune and incur losses in the first place?
Was He asleep?



Why do black Africans always reason irrationally/illogically?

This is the beginning of NEXT LEVEL, by the time Fulani herdsmen finish with Edo state, every one would be reciting the entire Qur'an unaided.

I remember when a doctor with UBTH was shot by this same fulani men around the same area and later died in the hospital.
Their down south slaves came challenging why the death should be attributed to fulanis forgetting that d doctor died after about 7 days and fulanis are among the most easily recognizable groups in Nigeria.
We're in for something else cos its it's not in doubt that the fulani menace increased since their life patron became president.
I served in Kogi and regularly traveled to Abj that 1 year.I can tell you 1st hand that almost all the nonsense around Koton Karfe on the Lokoja-Abuja highway are perpetrated by fulanis

let all Nigerians keep playing ostrich until they become slaves in their own country. When igbos speak, they say igbos are hateful... my wish is one: the Northerners should continue with their agenda... why south allow education to render them useless until they are rounded up.

What IF after they realise their mistake of kidnapping wrong person and they still shoot him?

Or what if they say bring the 500k lime that and still cut him?

If na white person tell una this story, na una type go dey shout God is still alive. I don't care what you believe in, but there is a God up there who show mercy to whom He pleases.
