A Pastor with The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) in Akure, Ondo state, Femi Ajayi, has been attacked by suspected Fulani herdsmen, leaving him with deep machete cuts.

Ajayi was attacked in his residence at Abusoro in Odudun axis of Akure South Local Government Area, after a failed kidnap attempt by the rampaging herdsmen.

The pastor took time to explain how the invaders jumped into his compound in an attempt to abduct him for ransom.

He said: “It was in broad daylight that the three of them (Fulani herdsmen) with big guns and cutlasses invaded my building.

“They jumped the fence into my compound and came in through the poultry area.

“Immediately I saw them, I shouted for help in the street and they began running after me but I really did not know how I escaped from them.”

Pastor Ajayi said he sustained injuries on his forehead and hand as a result of cut inflicted on him by his assailants while struggling with him.
