The menace of rampaging Fulani herdsmen was yesterday brought to the fore when six traditional rulers in Ijebu-Igbo, Ijebu North Local Government Area of Ogun State accused the herdsmen of destroying their farmlands and defiling women in the area.
The traditional rulers said activities of the herdsmen and their cattle posed serious threat to security in the area.
Addressing newsmen at its inaugural meeting held at the secretariat of the local government in Ijebu-Igbo, the monarchs said it had become imperative for government to check the alleged destructive and nefarious activities of the herdsmen in the area before it becomes unbearable.
They also appealed to the Ogun State Government to take urgent steps to bar the herdsmen and their cattle from the community to avoid any form of confrontation between them and the people of Ijebu Igbo.
Three of the six traditional rulers, who constitute the council, the Sopen Lukale of Oke-Sopen, Oba Mufutau Yusuf; Kegbo of Atikori, Oba Ibitoye Solaja and Bejeroku of Oke Agbo, Oba Olaoye Abas, and 21 other chiefs and prominent indigenes of the town, who attended the meeting, lamented that the destruction of the town’s farmlands by the herdsmen had brought untold hardships on the people of the community, who are mostly farmers.
