 Farmers in Ogoni land are lamenting over the incessant invasion of their farms by herdsmen who destroyed their crops and feed to their cows. The farmers who are all women complained that they have suffered badly following the attacks on herdsmen by the herdsmen who destroyed their farms with impunity and claim that they have the rights to any part of the forest in the area. In a day sensitisation programme on security organised by Lukiaka Community Development Centre, some women explained that the destruction by the herdsmen has brought untold hardship to them and their families. They said they have not been able to go to their farms because of the attacks adding that some women are being ripped by the herdsmen. When they came into my community since last year, they have been destroying our cassava. Come to the east end, we cannot bear it again. So our children, even my own personal child was there. My son, Destiny, went with them to pursue them out from the farmland. What they did was to bring out their dagger and their marcher that they want to kill them. And then my son ran and left his bedroom supercise on the farmland. They carried their cattle, they entered into the farmland. And when they entered, they don't just enter. They will destroy as many crops that we planted. And in case if they meet you in the farm, if you are alone, they don't walk alone. They walk two to three people. The Executive Director of Lukiaka Community Development Centre, Mata Agbani, said the meeting was to sensitise the women on how to be vigilant and more security conscious, to defend themselves in case of attacks by cattle rares. The government needs to start listening to what happens at the grass roots. There is need for them to increase their security force there, so as to monitor the scenes. And then government should also come up with more enlightenment campaigns that can make people know what to do, like what we are doing today. We are taking up what government would have done to enlighten these farmers, to make them be on better gas, how they could protect themselves. The Assistant Commandant of Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps in the state, Bemi Sola Iyekolo, who took the women on some security tips, condemned attacks by the headsmen, adding that the government is working hard to control the situation. The Nigerian Security and Civil Defense Corps has a unit called the Agro Rangers. And this Agro Rangers is under a department which is called the Critical Assets and U-Perspectral Department. And the federal government is trying to do their best in trying to take control of these men. Abani urged the government to pay more attention to local areas because there is more insecurity at the grass roots than in the urban areas. So you get notified about fresh news updates.
