A resident, who witnessed the invasion but refused to be identified for security reasons, said, "We have been having sleepless nights for years in this town. The attackers suspected to be Fulani herdsmen had wreaked serious havoc in this town.

"We once again appeal to the state governor, Seyi Makinde, to come to our aid, though the Commissioner of Police, alongside his team, was here (Ilero) on Sunday, and assured us of maximum security.
