However, an effort made by the Edo State Security Network to rescue the victims before they died proved abortive.

The herdsmen who were almost 40 in number thwarted the rescue team which caused most of them to disperse on an escape with various degrees of bullet injuries.


 The incessant attacks have caused most residents to flee and farmers to relocate from the suburb, while the remnants call on the government and security operatives for protection.
