According to report reaching oyogist.com, the Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, has reportedly the Fulani herdsmen out of the forest reserves in the state, in a bid to check the growing rate of insecurity in the state.
The Ondo state Governor made this known during a meeting with the leadership of the Hausa/Fulani and Ebira communities in the state capital, Akure, on Monday.
“We decided that all the criminal elements, who hide under various guises to aid the destruction of farmlands as well as perpetrate other violent crimes such as kidnapping, drug peddling and other nefarious activities, must be stamped out of our dear state.
“We have cases of several attacks on our people by these mindless elements. You will recall the gruesome murder of one of the members of the Ondo State Traditional Council who was caught in the web of the devious plans of these workers of evil on his way back to his domain.
The governor therefore noted that the fulani herdsmen have been given a seven days ultimatum to leave / vacate all forest reserves in the state.
