At least one person has been confirmed dead and several houses razed following an attack on Fulani settlements in Patigi Local Government Area of Kwara State by a group of vigilantes and local hunters.

According to a post on Friday by security analyst Zagazola Makama on X, the attack occurred at about 3:40 p.m. on Thursday, when the assailants, numbering around 100, stormed Fulani settlements in Latayi, Onashi, and Rogua villages under the guise of fighting kidnapping.

“The attackers reportedly set houses and food storage facilities on fire, killed a yet-to-be-identified Fulani man, and looted property including N1 million in cash and six motorcycles,” Makama wrote.

Sources said a joint team comprising military, police, and civil defence personnel has been deployed to the area to maintain peace and prevent any retaliatory attacks.

Meanwhile, efforts are underway to apprehend the rogue vigilantes behind the assault and recover the stolen money and motorcycles.

Nnamdi Kanu

A prosecution witness identified as PW4-DDD, on Friday described the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, as a terrorist.

PW4-DDD, an agent of the Department of State Services, DSS, testified while being cross examine by the defence during the resumed trial of the IPOB leader at the Abuja Federal High Court.

Kanu is facing trial on terrorism-related charges before Justice James Omotosho-led court.

The IPOB leader was first arrested in 2017 but was later released. He subsequently eloped to Europe after Nigerian soldiers invaded his residence in Afaraukwu, Abia State.

In June 2021, Kanu was rearrested in Kenya and subjected to extraordinary rendition back to Nigeria where he has remained in DSS custody.

During Friday’s proceedings, the prosecuting counsel asked PW4-DDD, “Do you know who Kanu is?”

He responded: “Yes, he is IPOB leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, who has been calling for the break up and secession of the South-East from Nigeria. He is a terrorist.”

When the prosecuting counsel asked how he got to know the IPOB leader, he said: “I knew him when he was arrested in Lagos and he incites people through Radio Biafra.”

The DSS operative who was shielded also commented on where Kanu kept the transmitter used in airing Radio Biafra.

Speaking on where the transmitter was recovered from, the prosecution witness said: “Mazi Nnamdi Kanu kept it in one Benjamin Madubugwu’s house at Ubuluisiiuzo.

“I was to carry out the search, locate the transmitter and retrieve it.”
