Farmers frustrated as cows invade Ekiti farms, destroy ready-for-harvest maize
Abiodun Nejo
Ekiti State-based farmer, Tunde Afe, is still counting the losses he incurred after cows destroyed his farm thrice, the latest being in January 2021. It was gathered that some herdsmen led cows to graze on the farm.
Afe, who is a cleric in the state, said his cassava farm was destroyed by cows a fortnight ago in Itapaji, Ikole Local Government Area of the state. He added that destruction of farms by herdsmen’s cattle was routine in the state.
He said, “Parts of my cassava farm at Itapaji Ekiti were eaten up by cows two weeks ago. Farmers have stopped reporting to the police because nothing came out of all the reports made so far. The Fulani herdsmen are wreaking havoc in Ekiti. This is the third time they are destroying my farm.”

Cases of kidnapping are becoming worrying in the South-West with kidnappers having a field day in Ekiti State. It’s a miraculous story for one of the kidnap victims, sixty-three-year-old retiree, Mr Taiwo Davies, who spent about a week in the den of kidnappers after he was abducted on Friday, November 16, 2019 axis along Ikere–Akure Road.
Davies said, “Kidnappers don’t move in the daytime. Immediately they kidnap someone, they would move to the bush in that environment, but the following day, at about 7pm when they know people are no longer on the farms, they would move to another place.
