Fulani Herdsmen Butcher Man In Imo For Complaining About Cattle On His Farm

 

Herders Almost Kill Man With Machetes On His Farm In Imo For Complaining About Destruction Of Crops By Cattle

A middle-aged man has been badly cut with machetes by armed men suspected to be herdsmen in Imo State.

Although SaharaReporters could not immediately ascertain the location where the incident happened, a video of the incident seen by SaharaReporters on Tuesday, shows the injured middle-aged man in a hospital facility.

It was gathered that the man was nearly killed because he asked the herders to leave his farm because their cattle were destroying his crops.

The video also shows that the bloodied man was on his head, arms and neck.

A voice in the video says the man was attacked on his farm by “Fulani herdsmen”.

"The man was attacked by Fulani herdsmen. We thank God that he was brought to the hospital on time. You can see the deep cuts they gave him in the neck, head and arms. With this, you tell that they had the intention to kill him."

Meanwhile, efforts made by SaharaReporters to get the reaction of the spokesman for the state police command, ASP Henry Okoye were unsuccessful as he did not answer his calls.

He had also not replied to the text message sent to him at the time of filing this report.
