The herdsmen, according to an eyewitness account, numbering over twenty, allegedly invaded the school in Oyo with their cattle and injured some of the students and teachers.

Some of the students and their teachers, among whom are Mr Paul Olabode, were inflicted with sword and machete cuts, while many others were left with broken legs and hands.

The source disclosed that the school had just finished morning devotion and students were preparing to settle down in their classrooms to continue their second-term examination when the herdsmen invaded the school farm with their cows grazing mindlessly on crops.

Efforts made by the students and the teachers to drive away the herdsmen were met with brutal resistance.

The school principal, Mrs Grace Alamu, who confirmed the incident said that the attack had been reported to the police.

“I am on my way to the school. Policemen are coming to the school this morning,” she said.
