Politics / Villagers Flee As Bandits Overwhelm Amotekun In Parts Of Ondo by Balkan(m): 3:34pm On Jan 06 |
Some villagers in Ondo State have begun to flee their homes, following incessant attacks suffered from the herdsmen-cum-bandits’ invasion. This has become the fate of residents in some villages in the state after longtime reported cases of attacks, kidnappings and sometimes – killings, which have continued to disrupt business activities, undermine food security, displace a large number of inhabitants, and also cast heavy doubt on the safety of lives and property. Research has shown that over 4,000 farmers have been killed in the South Western part of Nigeria from 2015 to date. According to the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data, Nigeria has lost not less than 8,343 persons to the farmers-herders conflict since 2005. This rising invasion of herders in the Southwest region subsequently led the governors in the six South-West states, with ranking traditional rulers, to form the Western Nigeria Security Network codenamed ‘Amotekun’ on January 9, 2020. Despite the support from the state governments, the regional security outfit has continued to struggle to maintain and counter persistent attacks from the herdsmen. Some residents have raised concerns about the wherewithal of the Amotekun corps to overpower and take control of the areas that have become dominated by the herdsmen. Following investigations by The PUNCH, a resident who gave her name as Tinu said she stays in Akoko but visits Ifon often and that it is always a scary journey to embark on. “I live after Arigidi Akoko but I often commute on the road that leads to Ifon. I have a friend I visit regularly. That road is now lonely, Amotekun men have practically been overpowered in that place because it’s like the epicentre of herdsmen. They sacked an entire community,” she said. Related News Five S’West states Amotekun hold walk for Akeredolu Army kills 10 bandits, rescues nine kidnapped victims Family, associates hold prayers for Akeredolu in Owo A monarch who didn’t want his name in print said he had to get extra local security to support the Amotekun but that they’re struggling to keep them away. Although, the men of the Amotekun security corps didn’t say much about the challenges faced, residents gave their views about some of the problems the security network encountered in the cause of duty. A man who simply gave his name as Joe and a graduate of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko, said Amotekun is powerless in certain parts of the state and his parents had to abandon their home because of the security crisis in their area. “Which Amotekun? Bandits are killing people in Ose LG every day. Ifon, Okeluse, Molege, Arimogijaa communities are no-go areas till today. We even heard Amotekun were told to stop fighting the bandits when they lost like 5 of their officers in that environment. My parents had to leave the house to go and stay with my brother who lives in Ondo town,” he said. While travellers have been attacked, killed and kidnapped, the farmers and their farmlands too weren’t been spared. From tales of being killed on their farms to escaping with injuries and destruction of farmlands, the farmers have had a bitter taste of the precarious security situation of the state. https://punchng.com/villagers-flee-as-bandits-overwhelm-amotekun-in-parts-of-ondo/?amp

No MNK no peace in SE and Nigeria. MNK is a bone in their throat. Your court has found him not guilty and because you have guns you still keep him. He will become more powerful when he comes out. For the slaves who love their chains, MNK is not the reason you are a slave. Nobody has the guts he has. A man who called Buhari a mad man while in the open court and still in detention, do you think such a person fears anyone. Think about that He has a more ruthless follower who is not kind as Kanu. Ekpa is a ruthless figure. Todays judgement will determine a lot. 57 Likes 12 Shares |

Its not by war to take over Lagos its systematic approach. That Lagos you are boasting of. Time will come only when few Yorubas can afford to pay rent to live there.

It's a big shame to the judiciary. If the president was not sworn in before concluding this matter in court, he would not have won those cases. Nigeria Judiciar is a branch of any ruling party. Incdunig INEC. I tell you, Tinubu is the smartest Nigerian politician ever lived. He was able to pull this string emascukating the whole institution of Nigeria, religious institutions even emasculated Buhari and the APC faction that wanted to deny him the ticket . He also emasculated Chicago state University. I detaste the man's character. But he is a legend. He is stronger than any human being living in Nigeria. 21 Likes 1 Share |
