Leaders of the community at a press conference in Akure on Thursday said the area is 'under the siege' of terrorists.
The people of Ijagba in Ose Local Government Area of Ondo State have raised an alarm to the authorities over kidnappings and killings by suspected herders in their area.
Mr Ogoh said a search party raised by the community later discovered Mr Odeh’s lifeless body after covering several kilometres in the bush. “So we are appealing to the state government that we need a military base, Nigerian Army to be specific, so that they can mount one or two checkpoints in the area between Ifon, Imoru, Ijagba, Ute and Okeluse in order to reduce the attacks by these Fulani herdsmen.
