Tsaragi youths stormed the palace of the Etsu Tsaragi in Edu Local Government Area of Kwara State on Sunday, staging a peaceful protest over the worsening insecurity in the town.
The protesters demanded that Fulani settlers vacate Tsaragi land and urged the Etsu to convey their grievances to Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, whom they accused of failing to protect communities in Kwara North.
Chanting solidarity songs, the youths decried incessant kidnappings and killings that have rocked the area in recent months.
Their demonstration came hours after armed bandits abducted a local businessman, Suleiman Ndana, during a midnight raid on the town.
The youths called on the state government to take urgent action to restore peace and protect Tsaragi residents from further attacks.
