 At least 17% have been feared killed following an attack by herdsmen in the northwest local government area of Benway state. According to local residents, the attackers burned down the houses in the community in the early Monday morning attack. Chairman of the west local government area Grace Ibagwon confirmed the casualty figure. The attack left many wounded while the survivors have been displaced and are now taking refuge in a nearby town. The police spokesperson in the state DSP Suwesi Anene confirmed the attack but said details concerning the perpetrators, the number of casualties, wounded and the extent of the damage at the community still unknown. Farmers go about their business, but the following news is they just come and provoke them and kill them with worrisome aspects of it. So the security agencies here seem to be doing less than we expect. For example, when people are killed, we cry to them and they do very little. The most they do is to escort us there to carry the dead bodies for burial. And so we are not satisfied with the actions. So pathetic and painful as we intend to stage our grievances. We saw as dead bodies were coming in from a nearby village where the full anise attacked. So it's a situation that we want to stand with our government and say that enough is enough. This is too much with us. The solution on the side of the church first, we pray to God that God should curtail the menace. And on the other side, the government need to stand to his responsibility. So you get notified about fresh news updates.
