An elderly resident who witnessed the attack told News Central Television in a Yoruba-language interview monitored and translated by SaharaReporters that government officials who visited the affected communities after the incident were turned away by grieving parents.
According to him, the parents made it clear that no amount of food or money could replace their missing children.
