The visibly angry Governor, who described the murder of the seminarian as unfortunate, condemned the dastardly act in its entirety and vowed to bring perpetrators to book, adding his administration will not tolerate the wanton destruction of lives and property in the state by the herdsmen.
"This morning , I received the report of an attack by suspected herdsmen on Attakwu community during which a seminarian, Mr Lazarus Nwankwo, was killed and four others injured. Even though the police are still conducting investigations into the matter, I hasten to condemn this act as the government cannot tolerate the wanton destruction of lives anywhere in the state under any guise,"xxx Ugwuanyi further disclosed that he had summoned a meeting with the leadership of the Fulani herdsmen and security agencies to determine the appropriate actions to be taken.
"It is unfortunate that this incident is coming just days after the commission of inquiry into the killing at Nimbo submitted an interim report and is about to conclude its assignment. I wish to express our sympathies to the families of the deceased and assure them that the government would do everything to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to book"Describing event leading to the unfortunate incident, the Chairman of Atakwu Autonomous Community, Chief Ndubuisi Ogbodo, who spoke to newsmen earlier today said that a certain woman had tried to stop some cattle from grazing on her farm on Wednesday.
"The herdsmen got furious and threatened to come back for her. They later came back in the early hours of Thursday and invaded the compound during which the pregnant woman and three other members of her household were attacked with machete,"The deceased, who was a tenant in the compound ran out to see what was happening upon hearing the victims screaming and was hacked to death. The victims received deadly machete cuts and are receiving treatment in two hospitals.

Too bad.
@bloomfieldtechnologies
Political man of god Mbaka has never altered a word about Fulani killings in Enugu.
#mbakawhy
Useless governor
So terrible.
This will later snow balled into a full scale war in future. So sad that these people doesn't value human lives at all.
Where is that political and false pastor Mbaka? He should come out and say something about these killings
Nice post aunty Linda Please if you need free browsing cheats and tech tutorials kindly visit WWW. OLAPROXY. CO.M
So, these people cannot be arrested abi? Cos they're invisible right. I've been seeing arrest of kidnappers, dog owners, etc but the fulani herdsmen, are they spirits. Buhari should set up a force to fish these people out for God's sake.
I hope dis time something would be done about dis madness. Linda take note!
This idiot governor is a weakling and clueless

AUNTY LINDA 👩
Talk talk and NO ACTION governor. Ugwuanyi is a complete woman. Shame to you. Emulate Fayose to sack herdsmen in your state. Why do you allow you people to cry and see heart brake daily.
Dis weakling of a gburugburu get out of my sight
This berdsmen now act as if they are untouchable hand go soon they meet them one by one.
One attack too many, these herdsmen have been grazing before PMB came into power, so why have they suddenly become notorious? To add to the pain, no arrest, no prosecution...
it is sad a dunce rtd general is president, no wonder there's so much insecurity in Nigeria since the Daura Dullard became president..

Send an undercover squad to slaughter them all wherever they are.. and let the story be told later! Damn fool! what rights do the Fulani herdsmen have to graze on people's farms, especially in this economic hardship period that their brother, foolish Buhari has put us in? People can no longer farm in their fatherland without fear of the intruding bastard Fulanis? Please this Nonsense must stop!. Only reprisal attack is the way forward! dialogue cannot help !

issit to just visit
-D great anonymous now as Vivian Reginalds
IT IS HIGH TIME U PPLE FOLLOW FAYOSE'S FOOTSTEP ON HOW TO DEAL WITH THOSE ANIMALS CALLING THEMSELVES HERDSMEN.
The other culprits have never been brought to book no to talk of this one. careless and useless talk without meaning.SMH
He didn't cry again today?.let him rant after wc he will go back and sleep.
An igbo man named his dog buhari, and he was arrested and now facing charges in court. Since these herds men have been attacking villages in the east none has ever been brought to book. Although i'm against violence but in this case i'm in for it. Some idiots cant keep taking the life of innocent people and would be left to go unpunished. I think its time they take their cows to the north.
