Worried by the insecurity in Ondo state, some aggrieved women have protested the rising cases of attacks, rituals and kidnapping by suspected fulani herdsmen.
The women, who marched on the street
of Akure on Thursday through the Deji of Akure’s palace and armed with
leaves, said that enough is enough about the criminal activities of
hoodlums who have taken over the state.
They noted that Ondo state
was no longer safe again as the hoodlums masquerading as “fulani
herdsmen” have all surrounded the forests and bushes in the sunshine
star
The protesters argued that the fulani herdsmen, who are always
armed with all kinds of weapons, would molest, maim, rape and even
destroy their farmlands and livestock
One of the protesting women,
Mrs. Uche Daodu who spoke to Sahara Reporters in Akure said they’re
worried about the rising case of kidnapping and attacks – most
especially on the women in the state.
Daodu noted that law
enforcement agencies in the state have not been doing well enough to
tackle the ugly activities of the fulani herdsmen.
She vehemently
complained that the lives of the innocent residents in the state are in
perpetual danger as the fulani herdsmen have found means to execute
their sinister activities.
“If you have noticed that the rates of
kidnapping in Ondo State is now becoming too alarming including the
cases of ritualists in the state.
“Already, we have learned that these set of people who are kidnapping and causing all these issues are the fulani herdsmen.
“These
evil dowers (fulani herdmen) after perpetrating the act would run away
into the bushes within the state where they currently stay and sleep.
“Also,
almost everyday we are now hearing cases of kidnapping in fact blood
shared is just too much in the state and the rate of raping cases is
just too high.
“Many that want to travel are scared because of the
cases of kidnapping by fulani herdsmen on our road and due to the
rampant case of missing persons just imagine the cases of missing
underwares too.
“We have the belief that we cannot continue like this
as Ondo state is known as a very peaceful state. So, when did all of a
sudden this ugly situation started rearing its head” she queried.
According
to her, Ondo State which is known as a peaceful state could become a
hotbed of violence if the authorities did not immediately face the
security challenges posed by activities of the fulani herdsmen.
Daudo
explained that women group have come out to sensitize females in Ondo
state to be very wary of the ‘criminals’ who target female folks for
rituals.
While suggesting some ways out of the doldrums, Mrs. Daudo
said that there was need for concerted effort by all security agencies
in state to combat the dastardly activities of the criminal elements.
“We
are crying out now for justices and we want our traditional leaders to
urgently do something about this as their evil acts are becoming too
rampants in our dear state (Ondo).
“Because these people surrounded
the forest in the state with terribble ammunition and we are now asking
what is the law enforcement agency doing about it.
“We want more
collaborations and proper synergies between the law enforcement and
security agencies in the state – like the Police, NSCDC, Army, FRSC and
NDLEA officials.
“We believe their collaborations will help stop all
these evil machination that is currently going on in Ondo State becuase
we the woman can’t enter the village markets again as a result of attack
and rape on us”.
