“This is becoming intolerable and barbaric. The government should come to our aid and put a stop to this turmoil. My people can’t sleep with their two eyes closed anymore because the land grabbers operate both in the day and night. If this issue is not addressed in time, it might lead to violence between our youths and the land grabbers, which I do not want to happen,” he said
Gbenga Ibuoye, a miner, who narrated how land grabbers have been invading his site since the beginning of the year, destroying properties and halting business activities, said several petitions have been written to the state commissioner of police and other relevant authorities.
