Palpable tension has enveloped the border town of Okuta in Baruten
Local Government Area of Kwara State over the alleged invasion of 16
villages by the authorities of Benin Republic.
Already, the authorities of the neighbouring country have gone ahead
to construct Gerdarmes Office (Police station) in the affected Nigerian
communities and also hoist their national flag at the affected Nigeria
villages.
The development, according to THISDAY investigations, has disregarded

two countries had respected.

Kparu,Halidun Kparu, Yakubun Kparu, Sonsi,Gunosani, Alhaji Kparu,Yodo
Mankparu and Simen Kparu.
It was learnt that the development has also led the Okuta Emirate
Council to order the people of Yakparu axis to dismantle of the
Beninoire flag hoisted at Nigerian villages and the flag is currently at
the custody of the emirate council in the town.
