A fresh bloody clash between farmers and Fulani herdsmen has claimed lives of five persons in Imeko-Afon Local Government Area of Ogun State.

It was gathered that the Fulani herdsmen and some Ohori farmers had engaged one another in a clash at Idofa village, leading to loss of lives and properties worth millions of Naira.

It was learnt that the people of Aworo community in Yewa North Local Government had chased the herdsmen from their village to Idofa in Imeko, killing three of them and their cows.

Aworo people had accused the Fulani of destroying their farms and water sources through open grazing of cows, a practice the Ogun State Government had banned.

DAILY GIST learnt  that after the Aworo people killed the three herdsmen in Idofa, there was a reprisal attack on Thursday, leading to the death of two Yorubas, one of whom was burnt beyond recognition.

Houses, four maize barns, motorcycles and other valuables were reportedly set ablaze by the attackers.
