Description
Suspected herdsmen have again invaded the Sobe Community in the Owan West Local Government Area of Edo State, killing a driver identified as Ome Osesa and injuring others.

A source in the community, who did not want his name in print for fear of reprisal, said the herdsmen invaded the deceased’s house in the evening and opened fire on him and others.

The source said, “The herdsmen invaded the community, killing Osesa in his house and injuring many others.

“The herdsmen later left Omesa’s house and moved closer to St. Thomas Moore Primary School where they also kidnapped some persons.

“The rate of killing by herdsmen in Sobe community in Owan West Local Government has become too many.”

Another resident regretted that the people did not get timely help during and after the attacks.

He observed that the new police divisional headquarters created in the community has not stopped the attacks on the community.
