How Fulani herders invaded my cassava farm with cattle, macheted me –Igangan farmer

A farmer in Igangan, Ibarapa North-West Local Council Development Area of Oyo State, has narrated how Fulani herdsmen invaded his cassava farm and destroyed his produce.

According to Akintola Olusola, his protest was met with anger as the herders repeatedly macheted and beat him up.

Speaking in video clips obtained by The PUNCH, Akintola said the incident occurred on October 15, 2018 while he and his workers harvested cassava on his 30-hectare farm.


“If not for the grace of God and the backing of our ancestors, I would have lost my life,” the farmer in his mid 40s said.

“I was on my farm on October 15, 2018 harvesting cassava with my workers. My farm is about 30 hectares. We had loaded five trucks but still had some cassava on ground to move to town. So, we decided that one of the trucks would come back to move the remaining cassava. I stayed behind waiting for the truck to return.

“Around 4pm, the herders came with scores of cattle. I told them not to go into the part of the farm with the fresh harvest but they insisted that their cattle would feed on the just-harvested cassava.


“They brought out machetes and swords when I resisted them. I thought it was all a joke but they started macheting me. I was the only one on the farm but God did not allow their machetes and swords to penetrate my body.

“When they saw that their machetes and swords didn’t penetrate my body, they hit me with their sticks. I ran to the main road and mounted a bike home,” he said.

Akintola said he reported the case at Igangan Police Post but the policemen on duty asked him to first go to the hospital for treatment.

The farmer said he was shocked that there were no arrests two days later; adding that he then informed the secretary of the farmers association in Igangan who filed a petition at the area command office accusing the herders of attempted murder.

“The policemen at the area command office agreed to arrest the herders. Three policemen came the Tuesday after and I took them to the settlement of the Fulani herders. I also pointed out the herders who wanted to kill me but the police officers were unable to arrest them because other herders resisted and attacked the policemen with cutlasses.

“The area commander later asked the Seriki Fulani to produce the herders but he didn’t,” he added.

Akintola further said, “I and other farmers approached the Inspector General of Police Squad in Ibadan to get justice. They came to Igangan but they were unable to arrest them (herders) because the Fulani people said the herders had gone to Republic of Benin. That was how the case died.

“I want to implore all Yoruba people to come to our aid. The Federal and State governments say we should return to our farmlands but how safe are our lives on the farms? We have lands but the Fulani herders are our problem.”


The PUNCH had earlier reported that a popular Yoruba rights activist,
Sunday Adeyemo, well known as Sunday Igboho, asked herdsmen accused of perpetrating sundry crimes in Ibarapaland to leave within seven days.

At the expiration of the ultimatum, Igangan residents, emboldened by Igboho’s presence had ejected the Seriki Fulani, Abdulkadri Saliu, and his herders out of the rustic town.

The residents of the town also vowed never to allow Saliu and his men return to the community.

Let all of us be prepare 4 wat is coming in this nation....

The time has come for us FREEBORN CITIZENS TO DEFEND OUR STATES AND REGIONS FROM FULANI TERRORIST INVASION. The killings currently going on is part of fulani agenda to Fulanize our lands and create fulani settlements in the name of Ruga (devish policy) across the country. Thereby stealing and handing our heritage to terrorist foriegners.
99% of fulanis in Nigeria are Aliens from futajalon and Niger Republic. They need to be send back to where they came from since the bulk of them are murderers and terrorists sympathisers.

Some people are still thinking if they are loyal enough, the killings will pass them by

My condolence!

Are we really human beings in Nigeria? Everyday, another victim in the same places and govt is doing nothing about it... And the people are also doing nothing about it. No lawyers suing the government. No law makers sponsoring bills to end open grazing. No occupy Nigeria. No labor unions going on strike to demand an end to open grazing. Nawa!

The only way to eliminate these vermins is total disintegration of Nigeria. Imagine an Odua nation or a Biafran country, which will have a border and will have control over those that comes into it. The custom and immigration is controlled by Fulani and they allow their murderous brothers to come through and kill the indigenous peoples in the south.
Nigeria is a death trap to us all as long as we remain in it. The Fulani have an agenda to eliminate all and replace us with their brothers from other west African countries.

It's a good sign that more Nigerians are coming out to share and narrate their experience and encounters with fulani terrorists. It shows that 'FULANI INVINSIBILITY' AND THEIR ABOVE THE LAW POSTURE is gradually eroding away. Their many centuries of crimes against humanity has reached its peak. Thus their day of jugement is at hand.
These people are bloody savages and cowards. We should not be afraid of them.
A TRUE WARRIORS FEARED BY ALL do not hide behind soldiers and police to slaughter women, children, and unarmed defenceless people in their sleep. They engage in face to face combat with their evenly match peers.
Fulani terrorist are cowards and they should be treated as such.

The government is conveineintly allowing bandits kidnappers in the guise of herdsmen to move unchecked into the country and go anywhere they like and set up camps in the bushes.


They then act surprised at the increase rate of kidnapping and crime.
Instead of rooting out the foreign criminals, they negotiate with them and say they have repented.

Who does that?

Exactly! One Nigeria is a fulani terrorists project. Which is why disintegration of Nigeria is a MUST.

Yoruba media will be the cause of war in this country. NBC should take note

Below is a famous quote by Ahmadu Bello, just 12 days after Nigeria’s independence. I don’t think most of us know the full implications of the message behind this quote:


”The new nation called Nigeria should be an estate of our great grand father, Othman Danfodio. We must ruthlessly prevent a change of power. We must use the minorities in the North as willing tools and the South as conquered territories and never allow them to rule over us or have control over their future.” (Sir Ahmadu Bello October 12, 1960)

if uv not secured urself against attack u wuld av bn dead and nothing wuld happen!

What happened to fulanis in Central African Republic will repeat itself in Nigeria.

Afonja is seriously enjoying one nIgeria that they voted Bulhary to reinforce

Let me shaa mind my business.

They are in a long thing.

It can only happen if the indigenous peoples of the south are united. Fulani in Central African Republic (CAR) were eliminated because the indigenous populations of that country were united in their fight
