A source in the town to Vanguard: “This is not the first time we’re witnessing this ugly incident, several women have been r*ped in their farms by these hoodlums suspected to be herdsmen.

”The fear of being attacked has prevented women from going to their farms alone for some time now.

”Why they picked on this old woman remained a mystery to us in the community

“The octogenarian was alleged to have been r*ped before she was murdered by her attackers in her farm

”What would have attracted them to an 80-year-old woman? They just wasted her. Maybe she recognized some of her attackers that’s why they killed her.

”Her gr*esome death was sad and unfortunate.

”We appeal to security agencies and the state government to come to our rescue in Ore. The hoodlums are having a field day and taking advantage of our women.

”Our amiable governor Rotimi Akeredolu, should help deploy the state security outfit codenamed Amotekun, to our community. We’re passionately appealing to him.”

An elderly Igbo man has died after he was flogged and tortured by his kinsmen.

Mr. Kenneth, aged 60, died in Nza Ozubulu, Anambra State, hours after being brutally tortured.

A video of the assault has been shared online.

It shows two kinsmen flogging his naked body mercilessly while he cried for help and writhed in pain.

Blood, sweat, and tears mixed on his body as they flogged him.

His hands were bound behind him, preventing him from escaping.

“What did I do?” the man asked repeatedly.

The men flogging him told him that he stole.

Another video shows the man lying lifeless later. Dried blood and open wounds designed his entire body.

It was later announced that he has passed on.

Eyewitnesses claim Mr Kenneth was flogged because he allegedly sold a water tank in his family house and used the money to solve family issues.

Subsequently, his younger brother allegedly arrested him with a vigilante group. He was tortured for hours and died in the process.

Concerned Nigerians have called on the state governor and the police to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to justice.

They are also calling on the government to protect his bereaved wife and children who are being intimidated in their efforts to seek justice for Mr Kenneth.

Here is an uncensored video of the attack.
