Assistant Police-Commissioner, 29 Officers Killed In Nasarawa Clash by Ptimes: 2:39pm On May 09, 2013 |
More details are emerging of the police casualty in Tuesday’s crisis in Nasarawa as the police have confirmed the death of 30 of its officials. The Nasarawa State Governor had told reporters at the State House Abuja on Wednesday that 20 policemen were killed by members of a sect in the state known as the “Ombatse” militia group at Assakio Village, about 10 kilometres from Lafia, the state capital. Mr. Al-Makura said the policemen were on lawful duty to dislodge the militia when they were killed. The Police Commissioner in Nasarawa, Abayomi Akeremale, on Thursday told journalists that the casualty figure has increased to 30.

honeric01: What kinda group is Ombatse? It was a bloody Wednesday in Alakyo village of Lafia East Development Area of Nasarawa State as over 90 people were reportedly feared dead yesterday in a gun duel involving security operatives and members of the Eggon militia group, Ombatse. The operatives had been deployed there to effect the arrest of the leader of the group, Baba Alakyo, and recover arms said to be in his possession. To underscore the severity of the gun duel, of the 11 trucks of security men deployed to the area, only two returned safely to the capital with only 20 policemen; nine of whom sustained various degrees of gunshot wounds. An assistant commissioner of police, Momoh, who led the team; some officers of the State Security Service (SSS) and about 15 Civil Defence Corps officers were among those killed. The incident occurred when the militiamen, who got wind of the impending arrest of their leader, Alakyo, by mobile police officers, ambushed the truck conveying the officers by dusk; forcing a retreat. 1 Like |

55 killed in 5 hours on Tuesday by Boko Haram in Bama, Borno: 29 officers killed in Nassarawa by another cursed group. It is high time President Goodluck Jonathan declare state of emergency in that war zone. Yes, its gonna be tricky politically, but as Americans will say ' do what u gotta do" This is out of hand, the FG shouldd dump the amnesty committee crap, and declare total war with these homicidal lunatics ... |

How can a local group kill 20 federal agents. Where is OBJ when you need him. If am Jonathan, by now I must have sent a military battalion to level that village... I wont even care about the innocent citizens. At least, that will be a lesson to all those villages/community that harbour militants. RIP to the gallant officers. 2 Likes |

Ptimes: Mr. Al-Makura said the policemen were on lawful duty to dislodge the militia when they were killed. The above statement makes me chuckles. It's a very popular press statement by Nigerian Police spoke person. Lemme reserve my comment on that to sympathise with the innocents that lost their lives. Methinks, the death figure disclosed by the force spokeman is exaggerated the Nigerian style, because compensation is coming for the families of the murdered cops and that figure means |

honeric01: What kinda group is Ombatse? Ombatse means "time has come" in Eggon language. |
Re: Assistant Police-Commissioner, 29 Officers Killed In Nasarawa Clash by rawtruth(m): 4:04pm On May 09, 2013 |
"Ombatse", as is being speculated, was formed by the Eggon ethnic tribe of Nassarawa state to counter terrorist activities of fulani herdsmen who have turned the state into a jungle-killing ground. Fulani militia/mercenaries, in spite of their dare-devil attacks on farming communities across the region, have been doing their best to avoid confrontation with Ombatse. That's why Eggon farms, unlike those of the Tivs of Nassarawa and parts of Benue state, have remained free from the trampling hoofs of cattle herds. Governor Al-Makura, while ignoring the fulani militias/mercenaries who have camps in Doma LGA and have cleansed the Tivs of Doma and part of Benue state, designated Ombatse a "cult group" and has vowed to destroy it at all cost. Watchers of events in Nassarawa state are saying that the governor views the group as a threat to his ambition to retain his seat come 2015. Such views gained their credence from the conspicuous tendency of the governor to ally more closely with fulani migrants than with the "Christian tribes" of the state. There are accusations here and there that the governor does the wishes of the Sokoto Islamic Caliphate, which has no respect for the wishes other ethnic groups in the north, save their converts/acolytes. By irrationally and foolishly killing security agents, the Ombatse has dug the grave for the mass burial of its own people; something the governor has been trying to do since he assumed office in 2011. 8 Likes |
