Armed herdsmen are currently operating as Fulani vigilante in Ondo State, Kayode Ajulo, human rights lawyer, has alleged.

Mr Ajulo stated this on Monday while debunking media reports that he was ambushed by Fulani herdsmen while returning to Abuja for the state.

The lawyer in a social media post Monday evening admitted that although he was in the state at the weekend for his mother’s investiture as the Iya-Ijo (Chief Matron) of the Christ Anglican Church in the state, he had no clash with Fulani vigilante as reported in the media.



“On my way back to Abuja on the 22nd day of July, 2019 in the company of some security men, we saw two men at the highway around Akoko, Ondo State carrying dane guns,” Ajulo wrote.

“On sighting them, inquiry was made as to their duty on the highway with guns in their hands, being not uniformed men. They thereafter responded that they were members of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Vigilante group whose operation is known to all the security apparatus in the area.
