The residents of Ijagba, Imoru and Arimogija in Ose Local Government Area of Ondo State have raised the alarm over the incessant attacks on the communities by suspected killer-herdsmen.

In a ‘Save our Souls’ message to the state government, the residents who are mostly farmers claimed that the killer-herdsmen had been terrorising the communities for over two weeks, killing and destroying properties worth millions of naira.

It was gathered that the herdsmen had allegedly been destroying farmlands and crops which included yam, maize and cassava in the affected communities and if the farmers resisted them, they would attack them.

A source in one of the communities on Wednesday stated that the herdsmen who always kidnapped the residents of the community for ransom had warned them not to go near their farms and local plantation.

Consequently, according to the source, many residents had abandoned their homes and relocated from the affected communities to the neighboring towns and villages for fear of further attack.

The source said, “They recently entered into a house and kidnapped a young girl just hours after they released a man from their captive after collecting ransom which was negotiated from N10 million to N1 million.

“For fear of the attacks, some of the residents of the communities have left the area. We want government and the police to save us in this area.
When contacted, the police spokesperson in state, Funmilayo Odunlami, said the command had not been briefed about the incident but men of the force would be mobilised to the communities to ascertain the true nature of happenings.

The rate of killings going on in Ondo state currently is beyond human analysis.

Lives means nothing to them there again. To fight all these insecurities there should be a new order entirely.

APC government has totally lost it. Insecurity everywhere. May APC never happen to Nigeria again. Never again.

I wonder which mudddd hhouuse you are typing from. Povertyyyy mentalityyy due to frustration rules most of Nairaland members.

The Insanityyyy is aided by frustration in life.

APC achievement

Atiku is coming

Chai! Abdul05 and AfonjaConehead, I think you both are demonic to be laughing over this event. This is how we are stupidly divided in this country while our real enemies are fast overcoming us. Shame on you.

This is why Bishop Oyedepo would say that the number of votes that APC (and I add PDP) will get in 2023 will determine the number of mad people in Nigeria. I can't believe that Fulani has been slaughtering Nigerians under an APC President of Fulani extraction, yet Nigerians in their millions are working for either APC or a Fulani to continue from where Buhari stopped.

Save our Soul message the SOS signal to bubble.

Okay, I wish it could be fake, but punch news is a reputable establishment and is not known for such fake News.
better tell your useless APC government to be responsible and protect nigerian lives , instead of expecting nigerians to be enduring silent killings, without complaining.
it's sadistic to be dehumanizing and killing innocent nigerians, and still expect the communities involved not to cry out.

It's been long. I hardly visit these forum again

Let me muddle in dirt with Nairalanders today

Why are they fleeing but well I won't blame them.

God forbid BAT thing next year. We don't need it. No way for a townhall different from balablu or electricity to roast bole.

Not my problem at all

I dont want to hear nothing like southern unity .

Don't judge or blame the Yoruba because of few wicked ones here, they're the most hospitable after the middle belt.. they are generally good people

Tinubu supporters will run away from this thread...

That your opinion

I served in Ose local government area and I must confess that the natives are really going through a lot in the hands of herdsmen ranging from destruction of their farmlands to attack on the natives.

Very saddening situation.

Although Amotekun is trying their best in that LGA. However, they need more volunteers and equipments because the LGA is very big in terms of land area with a lot of thick forests.
