Uzo-Uwani in Enugu state has been turned into a killing field by the marauding Fulani Herdsmen.
GRAPHIC PHOTO OF DEAD BODIES AFTER THIS POINT ON
An eyewitness report and pictures by Ikechukwu Donmichael Igwebuike on his Facebook page clearly shows the helplessness of the people against an armed militia group parading as cattle rustlers.
The military and Police services are controlled by the Federal government, their various state commands take orders from the central command. This leaves the state governments with little or no option to defend their people constitutionally but for how long can this go on?
As law abiding citizens, we have to speak up and step up the pressure on the elected reps at the National Assembly to take this up as a matter of urgent national interest to avert the looming anarchy in the Land. These needless deaths were widely foretold by the Transition Committee Chairman of Uzo Uwani Local Government Cornel Onwubuya but nobody listened.

Na wa o. What is Buhari doing about this???
ReplyDeleteI don't support biafra but the govt should try as much as possible not to give room for 'biafra'. When the ibos decide to fight, then the scholarly writers, tribalists, bigots and other morons will spring out of their shells to do a thesis on ibos. Make no mistake, everyone is capable of self defense especially an aggrieved tribe still trying to suppress their anger toward the nation. They are only quiet for obvious reasons. Continuous attacks will bring unpleasant results. This must stop.
DeleteAnd oga buhari, what's your stand on this matter? Doesn't this call for national concern?
And the Indigenes of that place are looking ba! I trust Warri and Ughelli, try nonsense you see rubbish. I trust Buhari not to see anything wrong with what his brothers are doing.
ReplyDeleteArea!
DeleteFulani people should stop killing biko
ReplyDeleteThey have not even started
ReplyDeleteI lack words for you. All I can say is may it be well with your household
DeleteFab mum, no ooo, I pray God visit this anon the way He visited some people to teach him a lesson.
DeletePeople will just come online and say rubbish? You think you are faceless? Wait till they ask Stella for your info, that's when you'll realise there's nothing like anon
Biafrans should rise up too. This fulani people are crazy. coming to Enugu to kill. Them no fear
ReplyDeleteAnd the dullard in Aso rock is keeping quiet because he is their chairman!,,,
ReplyDeleteNonsense!...
Useless aboki awusa Nama!,..
No mind am. When igbo people will react and and start killing the Hausa people all over enugu that is when he will talk and come out to make us seem like bad people. How can you come to our own land and start killing us????!!!!
DeleteI know Buhari is somewhere smiling right now.
ReplyDeleteHis brothers are doing exactly what he ordered them.
God protect your children
ReplyDeleteGod protect your children
ReplyDeleteI know dat Buhari is trying to punish d Igbos for not voting en mass for him.
ReplyDeleteThis has nothing to do with just the igbos. Everyone is a target. Didn't they kill in benue state?? Haven't they killed in delta state?? They have steered up problems in the west and also killed a few people there.
DeleteInbuilt dullard

Hmmm....
ReplyDeleteBuhari, call your people to order
Jesus,please deliver us from this blood thirsty demons. And people will still be saying Islam is a religion of peace! Peace My ass!!! Of all the religions in the world,how come it's only the Muslims that carryout massacres,suicide bombing etc. Gradually this things is spreading very fast, like a virus.Buhari should address this madness!
ReplyDeleteBro/sis, plz dis is not a religious war and dnt let us turn it into 1, if u study history well u ll realise xtians has done somtin similar in d name of crusade. FYI, I am a xtian
DeleteAnd this is one of the reasons why we want BIAFRA. Buhari is not saying anything about it but behaving as if he hasn't heard what his brothers are doing. Declare them terrorist...Mba! An INNOCENT MAN (Nnamdi Kanu) is being held up till TODAY whereas those killing people are walking freely. APC na scam BIGGGGGGGG TIMMMMMMMME.
ReplyDeleteThey are shouting BH all round when right in their faces these herdsmen are migrating with their murderous intent of destroying properties and killing people freely.
ReplyDeleteThat yeye president is yet to even tell his ppl to stop killing innocent civilians. What kinda president do we have sef. Took him a very long time to castigate bh and now that he's even a president, he won't say anything about the fulani herdsmen issue. Is it until they kill one of his family members?
ReplyDeleteOne of d first case I heard about these fulani herdsmen killing was one that they butchered a man in his own farm in my own village, a man distantly related to me and this was late 2014 or early 2015, now it has escalated to killing tens and hundreds of people. At what point exactly will dis daura Dullard have something to say about this?
They can't kill anyone in his family because they are one. Don't you know the kinda power the fulanis wield in the north?
DeleteThis is serious, govt your attention is needed ASAP
ReplyDeleteThe I people should fight back so that there will be more bloodshed and more of them killed.
ReplyDeleteNdi uchua eburu bata 042 anyi? Buhari control your kinsmen ekwensua.
ReplyDeleteOji obara anwu tea i know you will soon die but biko do not finish our people before you go ooo...Nebuchadnezzar of our generation!
These cattle rustlers don't own these cattle, they are also incapable of procuring arms and ammunitions on their own. They owners of these cattle are the ones who arm them, embolden them to kill and maim any onethat challenge them and assure them that nothing will happen after all. These people are the high and mighty in own society. It is sad that we have no representatives up their, only yes sir men

In my own Enugu state....these Fulani fools are everywhere.... Uzo uwani is a rice farming town and its obvious the Fulani's cattle graze on em

ReplyDeleteHow did 100 or more armed herdsmen move all the way from north to east unnoticed?
ReplyDeletePolitically motivated I believe.
Spot on
DeleteThis was how boko haram started o. Very soon this fulani herdsmen issue will escalate out of control and become more sophisticated. What kind of problem is this one? They use their cattle to destroy your farmland and if you complain, them go kill you join.
ReplyDeleteStella I wish you report most of the things happening in Nigeria. But then I don't really blame you. Because some of your readers will think this is just a one time occurrence of whixh it is not..
ReplyDeleteThis happens in jos. The kill people every waking day in the villages in jos. Clear up villages and leave people fatherless and motherless. There operations are usually early hours of the morning..
Few months ago it was benue.
They strikes again in ife where they killed one of the workers of the ooni who challenged them and asked them to top destroying their farmlands. He was buried last week or so.
This people struck in enugu state few months ago and when theynpeople retaliated, they were rounded up and locked up, leaving the fulanis to walk freely. Now they have orchestrated another attack and they would walk freely again..
It was in the news that they disturbed some certain places in delta also. It's in the news that they have been destroying certain farmlands in the west also and no one seems to be cautioning them..
So no, igbos aren't just the victims. But the constant silence of the president on this issues is not good. Some of this news don't even make it to the news portals as they try to bury it..
Yesterday it was all over the news about 2 boys that were kidnapped by this fulani herd men on their way from Abuja to Lagos. That was after they had robbed the car. They are yet to release them..
Another news 2 days ago also a yoruba man on his way back from his trip was shot dead and his 2 elder brothers kidnapped.
Every day there is a death news and kidnap story by this certain group of people. They use their vows to block the road. When you stop to let the vows pass, they rob you, kill you and kidnap the rest. This is their tactics..
I'm even tired of typing
This is not about Buhari! This is a militia springing forth lil by lil' boko Haram Etal started dis way! They better nip this in the bud b4 it's too late!
ReplyDeleteKelvin dat Edo Boi ( Stellz cousin )
The east and Igbo land is no man's land so the fulani herdsmen can go there anytime they want and do whatever they want there. They are taking over the east and very soon they will drive all easterners out of there into the bush where they belong.
ReplyDeleteAny mpama..u sure say u well.let's see how that will happen. Useless people
DeleteAnu mpama..let's see how that will happen. Useless people
DeleteLmao.. And you think it's only the igbos they are killing?? You haven't heard of the killing in benue or the west??
DeleteBe sure to be informed before you talk as not just the igbos are under attack..
And buhari is still preparing his speech abi?
ReplyDeleteIs high time Mr President addressed this issue.
ReplyDeleteSomeone from Kano(Fulani) told me a blood curdling story about these cattle rearers.
ReplyDeleteIt was hard for me to believe.
He said that once a tribe hurts these Fulanis especially their cows,that they send messages across to their people in the Neighbouring countries and somehow like thieves in the night they land/fly/crawl,whatever.
They are very diabolical and he even believes they come like the wind sort of. He gave me the attack in Jos as an example. They entered villages that had massive road blocks,the military didn't get a peep of them until daybreak when they leave ruins and massacres behind. No single trace of them.
Arrests of locals will be made,not knowing that the real killers have "magically" disappeared.
If his story is anything to go by,We have a problem in our hands.
Our Borders should be locked down!!! These people need to stop playing ten-ten at our borders.
You see, it's been an ongoing issue that needs a permanent resolve. Like I keep saying and like many political analysts have suggested whilst speaking on different news platforms. They need to set up a committee to mediate with the herdsmen if perhaps they have an organization or a leader. They need to understand what their grievance is, give them a boundary for their cattle rearing so that they understand it when they trespass.
DeleteThese are illiterate men who know nothing. The only means of livelihood for them is their cattle rearing. They not only operate in Nigeria, but also move around the boarders of Cameroon and the likes. Some of them are not even Nigerians, our government needs to call them up for a "peace talk" which will boost their small ego and so they know that no one is at war with them. This can be achieved with the help of the government of our neighbouring countries since they suffer same. Communication is the only thing that can solve this issue, not by killing the ones at sight, because more will come to take vengeance for the killing of their men.
If they have no community, one should be established for them. Give them their own farmlands and boundaries to rear their cows, that way they'd stop invading the farmlands of others.
Oya fearless strong igbo people come out and fight. Fab mum will lead you into battle.
ReplyDeleteYou are a miserable bastard
DeleteIt has been said by Philosophers that women are feelers, not thinkers. Just to help move this discussion in the right direction, you may read below for comments culled from other web sites. I could have posted my thoughts, but the comments aptly captured the questions we need to ask.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy.
FreeMind:
"And we all know this may not be true as the igbos would have slaughtered the fulani herdsmen had they tried it. And where are the cows? And I have lived in Abuja all my life. Fulani herdsmen r here they do not have guns and are not killing people. That is not to say that these attacks are not real. I completely doubt this enugu one. In agutu and even in the North these attacks are happening. But my anoyance is the desperate attempt to again turn this into a tribal war?"
Gbola:
"You nailed it right.
These are all my very initial concerns -- WHAT IS THE REAL IDENTIFY OF THESE TERRORISTS ??
Are they cattle herders ??
Are they even Nigerians ??
Or
Are they Boko Haram sympathizers ??
WHO ARE THEY ??
We shouldn't rush into Labelling them as Cattle Herders AS THEY NEVER CAME WITH CATTLE, COWS OR GOATS.
They came with ONLY Weapons."
They should not play with the tail of the tiger. Otherwise... Let them go and find out what happened in Aba in 1998/99
ReplyDeleteHow come one father like that didn't foretell this?
