SHOCKING DETAILS ON FULANI- ENUGU MASSACRE EMERGES: INSIDER REVEALS NEW INFORMATION ABOUT GOVT, POLICE AND ARMY
New information regarding the massacre at Nimbo in Uzo- Uwani Local
Government in Enugu that left many dead, missing and uncountable
property losses from rampaging nomadic mercenaries show that the attack
was openly planned and coordinated under the knowledge of the police and
army who failed to protect over 7 villages attacked.
The crisis had started with reports of Fulani herdsmen in the area
leaving with their cattle earlier in the weekend as the armed
mercenaries had been chartered to come in from Nasarawa state and commit
the atrocity.
Reports have it that as many as 500 armed terrorists with AK47s,
shotguns and other weapons arrived in buses Monday morning the decimate
the communities.
According to sources, “Chairman of Uzo-Uwani Local Government Area,
Cornell Onwubuya, had alerted Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi and the state
Commissioner of Police, Ekechukwu Nwodibo, of the threat.
“Onwubuya was said to have further alerted other stakeholders who met
leaders of the Fulani community in Enugu State on the impending attack.
“Speaking at the emergency meeting held on Saturday, Onwubuya said the
local leaders of the Fulani community also confirmed that there were
attempts to bring in mercenaries to attack some communities in
Uzo-Uwani, adding that the Fulani leaders in Enugu had complained that
some of their people were killed within the axis of Nimbo and Abbi
communities in the recent past.”
As other communities and survivors have run and sought refuge, villagers
reported that they had reported to the polcie about the threat to
attack the communities but the police and army were useless in abating
the terror attack and protecting the communities.
“The Fulani herdsmen had earlier threatened that Igga community is among the areas they will attack.
“They have now attacked Nimbo, which is among the areas they vowed to
attack. Others are Echenwo and Abbi. Already, the people of other
communities are fleeing their homes over fear of the herdsmen attack,”
according to reports.
Ohanaeze has condemned the incessant attacks as due to failure of governance.
many Nigerians are frustrated that the Federal government is nonchalant
about the repeated nomadic Boko Haram terror campaigns around the nation
with more victims reported everyday.
Nigeria’s information Minister, Lai Mohammed had said that the Federal government was addressing the matter “silently.”
The statement was denounced by Radio
Biafra who asked why victims looking for their loved ones were dealt
with and arrested and locked up violently while the Boko Haram nomadic
terrorists were silently treated and ‘promised government
accommodation.’
So far 40 bodies have been counted. Village heads said they have not yet
been able to search the areas and farms to know the final death toll
but many more are expected and feared dead.
