Edo State Police command, yesterday, pledged to enhance regular patrol in troubled Abumere II, community in Ovia North-East Local Council of Edo State.

The command said the move was to forestall breakdown of law and order, arising from reported disagreement between herders and farmers.

According to him, “what we have here is herders, farmers’ disagreement. And the CP and the State government have directed that we visit and restore normalcy”. Recall that herders were reported to have stormed the community on Sunday, fired shots into the sky. It was gathered that the herders requested to see the community head and members of local vigilante.

He said: “I can say very clearly that no single house was burnt, no woman was raped as reported but they came with guns to warn us to leave our farm produce for their cattle.
