Farmer Machetted To Death By Suspected Herdsmen in Oyo

 

Men suspected to be Fulani herdsmen have attacked a village in Saki in the Saki West Local Government Area of Oyo State where a young man was reportedly hacked to death.

The incident reportedly happened in the early hours of Sunday, 14th March, 2021, in Oke Orogun village. It was gathered that the victim who was simply identified as Kola was tied to a tree in the village and was hacked with a cutlass.

The sardonic development was said to have angered some youths in Saki, who invaded a Fulani settlement and set some of their things on fire.

Upon sighting the angry youths, residents of the Gaa were said to have fled.

Speaking on the matter, the Coordinator of the Odua People’s Congress OPC in Oyo State, Mr Rotimi Olumo, also confirmed the incident.

The Director of Media of the Okere Palace, Mr Akeem Olabisi, said the Okere of Saki Land, Oba Khalid Olabisi, has been making efforts to calm the people of the town down so that the incident would not degenerate to be more worrisome.
