Residents of Omobolanle area of Osogbo, who sighted the large number of cattle late on Wednesday, had reportedly alerted men of Amotekun Corps that a herd of cattle and herdsmen were approaching the town.
Responding to the distress call, men of Amotekun Corps, led by the Field Commander, Amitolu Shittu, it was learnt, stopped the herders and interrogated them. In a chat with our correspondent on Thursday, Shittu, who confirmed the incident, said the herders were not armed, but added that their presence led to panic among residents.
He said, “It is true that some herders coming from Ogbomoso had entered Osogbo under the cover of the night. They were 12 herdsmen leading about 1,000 cattle.
