The Governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi has reacted to the deaths of two farmers in the hands of herdsmen.

Fayemi’s reaction comes after he paid condolence visits to the families of the deceased.

The Governor posted on his social media page

”Yesterday, two of our farmers from Isaba Ekiti, Mr Toyin Akeju known locally as Jisoro and Mr Yusuf Onuche were found dead on the farms with wounds from gun shots suspected to have been fired by Bororo herdsmen. This, understandably, generated a lot of anger in the community.

This morning I visited the families of the deceased in the community. In offering commiserations of the government and all our people, I reassured them that we will get to the bottom of this sad occurrence and bring all the criminals involved to book.

This is one killing too many and we must do all we can to protect all citizens. May the souls of the departed rest in peace. Amen”.
