Two weeks after suspected herders killed three people in Sobe, Owan West Local Government Area of Edo, the herders returned and injured one person and kidnapped a child.

According to the Nigerian Tribune, the attack occurred on Tuesday night, as many residents of the community were said to have fled their homes for safety elsewhere.

According to the villagers, this was the sixth such attack since January of this year.

A pastor and two other farm workers were killed in the agrarian community when herders attacked two weeks ago.

According to the latest report, a barber named Monday was attacked with a machete and left for dead by his assailants.

Some brave villagers were said to have rushed to the victim’s aid and taken him to a hospital, where he is recovering from his injuries.

“It is yet another tragic moment for the people of Sobe community as suspected herdsmen invaded the community again on Tuesday.

“A barber called Monday and his family were attacked in their own house in the night.

“The herdsmen laid ambush until Monday came home and when they sighted him, they macheted him and left him in the pool of his blood. The Invaders also kidnapped one of Monday’s children and stole other valuables.

“The victim was taken to the community health centre where he received treatment and is in a stable condition. But the herders are yet to reach the family of the kidnapped boy.

“The herdsmen then entered some part of the community and started looking for vulnerable victims. We hereby call on the Nigerian Police Sobe Division and all other Forces to please come to our aid,” the source, who pleaded anonymity explained.
