The neighbouring Benin Republic has annexed sixteen (16) villages in Okuta, the border town in Baruten local government area of Kwara state, an infringement on Nigeria’s sovereignty, thereby causing fear and tension among Nigerians living in the affected communities as President Muhammadu Buhari looks on, despite swearing to defend Nigeria’s sovereignty.
On a conquest, Vanguard reliably gathered that authorities of Benin Republic have gone ahead to construct Police station in the captured villages while also hoisting the Benin Republic flag.
The unilateral annexation of border towns in Kwara state by Benin Republic is provocative and a declaration of war on Nigeria by Thomas Boni Yayi, Benin’s President, who is an ally of the French government.
The affected Nigeria villages invaded by the Benin Republic include Ogomne, Bwin, Gandasunon, Kparu and Woru Wuren Kparu.
Others are Ajuba,1, Ajuba 2, Saka Yeruman
Kparu,Monta, Dotin Kparu,Halidun Kparu, Yakubun Kparu, Sonsi,Gunosani, Alhaji Kparu,Yodo Manawatu and Simen Kparu.
