The herdsmen thereafter ran into the nearby Hausa community.
The source stated, “Of particular concern to the youth are the frequent kidnapping, robbery and rape of women in Ehor and the adjourning villages whenever they are coming to, or going back from the Ehor Central Market every five days. spots, but the Fulani among them do not do any noticeable business. They always come and go without renting any accommodation. They squat with the Hausa people and mainly take shelter in the mosque and always carry sophisticated guns, cutlasses and knives about.”
