In a recent tragic incident in Edo State, three farmers were reportedly killed by suspected herdsmen.
The attack, which took place in a rural farming community, has left the local residents deeply shaken and raised concerns about the safety of farmers in the region.
Eyewitnesses reported that the assailants targeted the farmers as they were working on their land, resulting in a brutal confrontation that ended in the loss of lives.
