Barely two weeks after some fulani herdsmen attacked and kidnapped the former Secretary to the Government of the Federation SGF, Chief Olu Falae, some herdsmen have again destroyed the same farmland.

The farm Manager Bruno ‎Akhigbodemen conducted newsmen round the farm located at Ilado in Akure North Council area of Ondo State

Over one kilometer plantation of maize was destroyed during the invasion at about 2am on Monday.

‎Akhigbodemen said that the herdsmen arrived the farm with their cows and wrecked the havoc despite the horrible experience the workers and their boss had in the last two week sequel to their menace‎.

He pointed out that ‎effort by the guards to prevent the destruction of the farmland were rebuffed as they were threatened by the herdsmen until their cows grazed to their satisfaction.

The farm Manager said that the former Finance minister has reported the latest destruction to the state Police Command for necessary action.

Vanguard learnt that following the complaint by Chief Falae, some detectives from the Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS) ‎were immediately deployed to the farm on Monday.

They reportedly combed the neighboring villages for the suspects but they were unable to make any arrest.

Report had it that the search still continues as some detectives still keep vigil in the village.

It was gathered that the police authority has invited leaders of the herdsmen in the state who stood surety for those that were arrested and released during the last invasion when over N500, 000 worth of farm products were destroyed.

‎Akhigbodemen described the destruction of the farm last week sunday as devastating.

He appealed to the government and the security operatives to act decisively on the menace of the herdsmen.

Chief Falae could not be reached for comment on the destruction of his farmland which is coming after his kidnapped and payment of N5m ransom to free him from his abductors.

It would be recalled that the former Minister for Finance has been having issues with the fulani herdsmen ‎whose cows have on several occasions destroyed his farmland.

He is billed to travel abroad this weekend for medical treatment after his horrifying experience which he described as ” hell”.

The latest destruction according to findings is the fifth within two months.

Before his kidnap barely two weeks ago, two fulani herdsmen were arrested and detained for destroying over N500,000 worth of farm products on the farm.



They were released after some of their leaders wrote an undertaker that they would pay compensation and would not encroach on the farm again.



Barely three weeks after the episode, Chief Falae was abducted by some gun wielding Fulani herdsmen on the same farmland and was released after 72 hours.



No fewer than three policemen have been deployed to his Oba Ile residence since his kidnap last month.



Contacted on the Sunday invasion and destruction of the farm by the Fulani herdsmen, the Police Image Maker Femi Joseph said that he is not aware of the incident.



Joseph was recently posted to the state and made the Command spokesman last week.

These people are troublesome. PMB do something.

Fulani herd's on rampage. Somebody should do something

Pishure or adonbilivit

Again? So these herdsmen consider Afeniferi and OPC as barking dogs that seldom bite? Time for the Yorubas to rain down fire and brimstone has come!

This story is more believable than the crap about Falae's abduction.

The government needs to come up with a comprehensive national plan to resolve this grazing issue.

We must set aside grazing highways nationwide to make up for the encroachment of the herdsmen's grazing areas which they've used for hundreds of years.

Until we do this, expect your crops located along the paths of the herdsmen's historical grazing area to be eaten by cows, by hook or crook.

And just last week, the Saraki Fulani, who is the leader of the herdsmen in the SW, gave a press conference where he claimed the Fulani herdsmen were not responsible for the abduction of FALAE, and were naturally peaceful people. And after giving that press conference, he ordered his boys to continue their mayhem. Good one Fulani.

Buhari call your boys to order.
Body Odour.

BUHARI NEEDS TO CALL THIS TRIBESMEN TO ORDER, BEFORE ITS TO LATE

Don't even know what my reactions are.
Some people actually think they aren't herdsmen of Fulani origin. That they are Igbos.

So, I better keep quiet.

Returning violence for violence multiplies violence.

But Y!!!! Wait o, may be dey wan collect from wat Baba Falae has kept during d military regimes. I think he shud relocate ASAP. My advice is dey shouldnt try it wit OBASANJO (Owu's demon) becus he never repent.

Cowards everywhere. They know themselves, it is only here they get mouth.

These herdsmen are a menace to Nigerian society and modern development. I suggest they learn how to go into full scale cattle ranching especially via the renting or lease of lands for such purposes before people decide to take matters into their hands and defend their farm investments. A word is enough for the wise. FG should take note

What encroachment are you talking about? Are you trying to insinuate that farmers have begun to encroach on lands that were hitherto meant for grazing?

This clashes came to the fore in the last 16 years as a result of Climate change and Desertification. As a result, the so-called "historical grazing areas" have been taken over by the desert and not by the farmers as your post seems to suggest. It is the Fulani's who are now being driven to encroach on arable land by Desertification.

In addition to your suggestion, unless the Federal government also has an action plan to fight Desertification then these clashes will continue.

The response to this Fulani menace.....must be swift....must be more than proportionate.....and must be finite.... ....just watch and see....the government has been given enough chances....

Hmmmm

The solution to the herdsmen crisis is education and the earlier the better. The Normads have no value for cash crops because their traditional religion places them in a position not to understand.

These cow jockeys( apologies to shymexx) are getting brazen with each passing day. I wonder why the deafening silence on the part of the FG. The issue of these herdsmen needs to be addressed ASAP, agricultural revolution is a key point in In PMB's campaign promises and these herdsmen from hell are the biggest threat to farmers.

Baba I know they are "your people" but please do something before these farmers resort to self help.
We already have enough security problems. A stitch in time saves

Fulani herdsmen know how to evade tax and land levy, whenever they come they will strike then people and government will be begging for peace so no one remembers to ask for tax and land payment from them . It really works for them. While the peaceful Igbo traders scattered across the nation are being threatened and even forced to vote against their wish.

For which they used a hundred years? Expect crops to be eaten by cows?

nduchuks I know you're Fulani but please stop making your ignorance so obvious.

Why can't they destroy their farmlands in the North? Why bring the madness to the South?

Your illiterate Fulani herdsmen have no respect for the owners of the land or their lives.

Yea, we need to set up a national plan and restrict Fulani menace to the North. I doubt the demons would follow any plan should we allow them to come to the south.

I hope Ndigbo would come to the rescue before the case of ilorin is repeated again

Am writing a novel with the title, 'The Audacity of the slave masters'! The Fulanis seems to be laying a huge claim to the ownership of conquered territories, in the west of the Niger and other willing lands in the middlebelt........before i forget,it is one Nigeria.

Fortunately our President is Fulani man. He should invest in educating his people on modernisation and population pressure.

wch grazing highways? Those cattles should be in a Ranch and the fulani murderers be prosecuted

"We yoruba muslims disagree with this blatant lie, the peaceful fulanis are innocent, it is the Igbo herdsmen that should be accused of commiting this atrocity. Sai fulani!"- Alhaji Ishaq Akintola

are you an illiterate ? Stop using party loyalty as an excuse to advertise your sťupidity. In which modern country have you ever heard of grazing highways ? Human beings are specially designed to adapt to changes in society and the so called herdsmen are supposed to adapt it ship out. Falae said Fulani herdsmen kidnapped him now you're trying so hard to call him a sťupid person who doesn't know who herdsmen are or what they look like, maybe when they devastate the farmlands in your village you will change that block occupying where your brain is supposed to be

Honestly, most of these demons are criminals. They kill at the dead of night and escape the scene like an organized mafia.

And to make matters worse, if they ever side with their boko haram brothers, the South is doomed.
