Terrorists suspected to be bandits invaded the Oko-Erese community along Oro-Ago in Ifelodun Local Government Area of Kwara State, killing two farmers and abducting two women.
Sources who spoke to SaharaReporters revealed that the deadly attack occurred on Tuesday when the assailants stormed farmlands in the community and unleashed violence on unsuspecting victims.
According to the source, the terrorists targeted farmers who were working at the time of the invasion, shooting and killing two of them on the spot before abducting two women whose identities had yet to be confirmed as of the time of filing this report.
The source further disclosed that another resident narrowly escaped death but sustained serious injuries during a separate attack by the same group.
“They shot at him but the gun did not penetrate him. However, they used their stick to hit him on the head as he tried to escape from them,” the source said.
SaharaReporters previously reported that terrorists have attacked a forest guard operative identified as Saheed and a civilian in Babanla community, Ifelodun Local Government Area of Kwara State, leaving one person abducted and another seriously injured.
Sources who spoke to SaharaReporters said the incident occurred on Tuesday afternoon.
According to the sources, the forest guard and the civilian, identified as Rashid Oke-Apata, were travelling on a motorcycle when they were ambushed by armed men.
“The two men were on a motorcycle when the attackers suddenly opened fire on them,” the source said.
“Despite the gunshots, the forest guard refused to stop. That was when one of the assailants used a machete to strike him deeply on the hand.”
The source added that amid the chaos, the passenger, Rashid Oke-Apata, reportedly jumped off the motorcycle in a desperate attempt to escape but was overpowered and abducted by the attackers.
“He tried to run for his life after jumping from the bike, but the gunmen chased and kidnapped him,” the source explained.
A video obtained by SaharaReporters shows the injured forest guard officer with a deep machete wound on his hand, bleeding profusely.
His condition was described as critical but stable after the attack.
