Description

For the umpteenth time, armed herdsmen again invaded the agrarian community in Ose Local Government Area of Ondo State, killing, injuring farmers, traders and destroying farmlands.The attack on the communities in the area, which include Arimogija, Ijagba, Molege, Ute and other communities in the Ose axis of the northern region of the state, was one of the bloodiest in the area in recent times.

Narrating the ordeal, a community leader, Olowolafe Folorunsho, stated that the February 2, 2023 attack was triggered by an effort by farmers to repel the continued wanton destruction of their farmlands by the herdsmen. However, many of the farmers were injured during the attack.
