Reacting, the ASN expressed deep shock over the killings, warning that it would no longer remain silent amid repeated attacks on farmers.
The society’s position was contained in a statement issued on Saturday by its Secretary General, Adegbenro Ogunlana, and signed by President General, Kamorudeen Okikiola.
ASN urged the Oyo State and Federal Governments to immediately investigate the incident, prosecute the perpetrators, strengthen security in farming communities and provide support for the families of the victims.
