Brave but poorly-armed, Ondo Amotekun lock horns with rampaging killer herdsmen Published 16 March 2021 PETER DADA writes on the interventions of the Amotekun Corps in securing Ondo State, some of the challenges confronting the security organisation and how these can be surmounted In early February, herdsmen in Sanusi village, Owo Local Government Area of Ondo State, set the operational vehicle and the motorcycles of the Ondo State Security Network Agency, also known as Operation Amotekun, ablaze and thereafter ran away when the men of the corps visited the village following a distress call. It was gathered that the distress call was about a fight that ensued between members of the vigilante group and some armed Fulani herdsmen, who allegedly destroyed the farmlands of farmers in the village. But unfortunately, a farmer and a member of the vigilante group lost their lives in the battle before the men of the Amotekun Corps arrived in the village.
