By: Zagazola Makama

Security operatives in Borno State have arrested three herders for allegedly allowing their livestock to destroy farmlands in Ajiri Town, Mafa Local Government Area.

Intelligence sources told Zagazola Makama that the suspects, identified as Muhammadan Usman (27), Abba Muhammad (16), and Adamu Bangi (12), were apprehended on March 13, 2025, around 8:00 a.m. during a routine patrol by a combined security team.

It was gathered that the herders’ cattle invaded and damaged sections of the Firgi Guinea Corn Farm. Security operatives swiftly intervened and recovered 46 cows and 30 goats.

Police have taken the suspects and livestock into custody, and the Farmers-Herders Conflict Resolution Committee has been contacted.

Investigations are ongoing.
