The mostly elderly women marched through the streets to highlight their distress over the frequent incidents of killings, kidnappings, and the destruction of their farmland.
The protest occurred after a local farmer, Sunday Ayeni, was brutally killed on his property following a conflict with herdsmen. Ayeni’s body, along with his hunting dog, was found by a search party over the weekend. This incident has led many farmers to abandon their lands out of fear of further violence.
During a security meeting at the palace of the Olubaka of Oka, Adebori Adeleye, the women called for justice for the victims of these ongoing attacks.
The group’s spokeswoman, Mrs. Abigail Ojo, claimed that suspected herdsmen had raped some women on their farms and destroyed their crops. She emphasized that they would not return to their farms until they received adequate security and protection.
Mrs. Ojo declared, “We cannot tolerate these senseless killings any longer. All of this has to stop,” and appealed to security agencies for a lasting solution to their plight.
In response, the traditional ruler, Mr. Adeleye, assured that the security situation in the community was being addressed by the appropriate security forces.
