Nigerians on social media have expressed outrage at the news of the brutality suffered by some villages in Yewa North Local Government Area, Ogun State, in the hands of soldiers who escorted some herdsmen to graze in their community.
The Nation had reported that the soldiers, numbering ten, had escorted some herdsmen on a mission to intimidate the villagers who had resisted an attempt by the herders to graze their cattle in the community due to the alleged destruction of farms and the repeated attacks and killing of farmers by the herdsmen.
The herdsmen who had earlier bowed to the resistance returned about 2 pm on December 19, 2020, with soldiers from the 35 Artillery Brigade, Alamala, Abeokuta.
