Bandits suspected to be armed herders have struck again in Ondo State following the fresh killing of five more farmers.
The farmers were killed in the early hours of Wednesday after the armed herders invaded a farming settlement in Aba Oyinbo, Akure North Local Council Area of the state.
The latest killing comes about two weeks after over 20 farmers were murdered during a midnight invasion of four communities in Ala Elefosan.

The protesters, who shut down the Governor’s Office, also barricaded roads in the state, leaving commuters and motorists stranded.
