Fulani herdsmen attacks Ngwo,Enugu State

    It all started when the people of Etiti Ngwo in Enugu Sate Nigeria went to destroy the huts of the fulani herdsmen in their empty space of land Ugwu onyeama and agu-etiti because of the barbaric act commited by the herdsmen at uzo-uwani in enugu state. On May 1st 2016 being a Sunday at exactly 4pm the fulani herdsmen attacked Etiti ngwo with heavy guns,to the luck  of the villagers a man at his farm inspecting his crops sited the fulani herdsmen with machine guns and immediately alerted the village vigilante group whom blocked them from entering. Heavy gun shuts was all over the place,when the fulani herdsmen saw that there cow has been shot down they made way into the thick bush with the rest of the cows shouting in pigeon english we go come back,we go come back,we go come back.Later in the evening the villagers living far from the heart of the community ran out from their lovely homes to Omoha the heart of the community with the fear of being attacked at midnight by the dreadful fulani herdsmen like they did to Benue and uzo uwani victims.

  Attacks by the Fulanis has been consistent at milikin Hill, stealing and kidnapping women whom they rape and demand for ransom before they are released. Subsequently the fulani herdsmen would enter farm lands with their cows and destroy crops in the name of grazing there women and children would steal corn,yams and other farm produce of Ngwo people. Years back the people of etiti ngwo killed two of their cows while grazing on a crop farm land in the village.The people of Ngwo and Enugu state now live in great fear because no one knows when they will strike again.I myself had to leave ngwo for my own safety. Earlier in the week the fulani herdsmen sent a letter of attack to the chief of Ngwo Ato in ngwo Enugu state,swearing to destroy them.As i write to you now people are vacating there homes to the city.

  Uzo uwani was not the only place the fulanis attacked Enugu state, an attack was also lunched at Amoji Nike in Enugu East Local Government Area where a man who went to inspect the land he just bought with few of his family members was shot at the left arm with the splash of the bullet blinding one of his relatives and others with minor injuries. Below is the of the Amoji Nike victim with the igboist group members lead by Afipko Chic to deliver some relief material. Followed by the picture of the victim of uzo uwani massacre.

 Also at Ihenyi village in Ihe-amufu, Isi-uzo local government area of Enugu State,as at 8pm the whole village was in tumoil as an alarm was raised that the fulanis has entered the village. The villagers ran all the way from ihenyi to amaede with the people of amaede running with them to the neighboring village called umuhu,most slept inside the bush till the following morning.

The question remains,why should igbos be living in fears in their own land.The Bishop of Anglican Church of Nigeria His Lordship Bishop Chukwuma warned all the Igbo's to stop consuming beef, no one should either buy nor sell and as well asked Christians across the nation to pray and fast.
