BREAKING NEWS: Fulani Herdsmen Kill Three people in Enugu Community Find Out How Its Happened.
The police have confirmed the killing of three
persons by gunmen in Ogbede-Mgbuji, Eva-Amufu Community in Isi-Uzo Local
Government Area of Enugu State.
The police spokesperson in the state, Daniel Ndukwe,
who disclosed in a statement on Friday, said the incident happened on Monday.
The gunmen, suspected to be herders, were said to
have abducted an unknown number of persons from a neighbouring Ikem community
during the attack.
Mr Ndukwe, however, said he had no report on the
alleged abduction.
“The yet-to-be-identified assailants, on June 13,
attacked and murdered three male victims, at Ogbede-Mgbuji area of the
community, who were confirmed dead by doctors and deposited in mortuary for
preservation and autopsy,” he said.
Mr. Ndukwe said the insecurity in the area was
caused by farmers-herders crisis within farm settlements in the community which
borders Enugu and Benue States.
The police spokesperson said the police have begun a
manhunt for the assailants.
He said the Commissioner of Police in the state,
Abubakar Lawal, visited the area on Friday alongside other security agencies to
assess the security situation in the area.
The Director, State Security Service, H. M. Daluwa,
the Commander, 82 Division Garrison Command of the Nigerian Army, M.K. Ibrahim,
and the Commander, 553 Services Base Group of the Nigerian Airforce, Enugu,
I.A. Taiwo, were among the delegation during the visit, Mr Ndukwe said.
