Suspected herdsmen killed 64 year old father of 7 in Ondo

A 64 year old father of seven, Linus Ogehee, was 
hacked to death by suspected herdsmen at a settlement 
in Akure North Local Government Area of Ondo State on Sunday June 25th.

According to EG, the deceased was killed  on his farm 
which he had been cultivating on for over 20 years.

Narrating what happened, his wife, Roseline Ogehee, said
"It was almost getting too dark and my husband had not
returned from the farm, so I decided to trace him down
there. As I stepped into the farm, I saw the lifeless body
of my husband with cuts, bruises and bullet wounds on
his corpse. I feared and immediately ran back to the
village and also raised alarm to the villagers that they
(Fulani herdsmen) have killed my husband".

The gruesome murder has led to protests, as angry 
villagers and youths including school children, came 
out to express their outrage at the murder of the poor 
farmer.

They demanded an immediate investigation, and the
 arrest of the culprits responsible for the cold-blooded 
murder, which took place in Oleyo, in Igbatoro area.

The protesters, armed with placards and tree branches, 
called on the security agencies in Ondo State to save their villages from the incessant invasions by herdsmen.
