The people of Ahor Village, Uhunmwode Local Government Council Area of Edo State have denied the allegation of forceful take over of Eyaen land, their neighbour with whom they share common boundary.

Their denial follows the alarm raised by the people of Eyaen in the media that their neighbour, the people of Ahor has forcefully taken a portion of their land, and were seeking justice.

Speaking on behalf of Ahor people, an elder from the community, Pa Andrew Ehigiator said though they share common boundary with Eyaen people from ages, they have never encroached on their neighbour's land.

He said they are only taking ownership of their land that is remaining after the encroachment and hijack of their territory, adding that the actual boundary between the two communities is behind the Reynolds Construction Company (RCC) at Eyaen.
