– The Enugu police has referred to the perpetrators of the attack in Enugu as hoodlums

– The police sympathised with families of the victims and promised to bring the perpetrators to book

– It also clarified the number of victims affected by the onslaught

The Enugu state police command has provided a report on the supposed Fulani herdsmen attack which occurred in Ukpabi Nimbo community in the state but significantly referred to the perpetrators as hoodlums rather than herdsmen

The attack occurred on Monday, April 26 in Uzo-Uwani council and it was reported that 500 people died in the attack while over 2000 persons were displaced as they fled to neighboring communities of Nkpologu and Uvuru, even as Nkpologu natives fled to Nsukka in fear of attack.

Houses were reportedly burnt while goods worth millions of naira were lost while it was reported that Fulani herdsmen imported about 500 others from Nasarawa state to help launch the attack on the community.

However, in a statement signed by Ebere Amaraizu who is the spokesperson of the Enugu state police, it was reported that only 6 persons died while 11 persons were injured as against the earlier figures of causalities and that the attack was carried out by hoodlums.

The police also confirmed that vehicles were burnt and damaged in the attack but assured that the perpetrators will be brought to book

Meanwhile, there are unconfirmed reports that some Fulani herdsmen invaded Umuchigbo community in Enugu, just a few days after an initial attack.

These Foolaneeys are probably attacked by IPOBians, and then, everything went to hell. They dont just attack farmers. I mean, theres 2 sides to every story. We need to start interviewing those Foolaneeys as well, and get their side of the story. Theres no smoke without fire!

very senseless post

The police ar bunch of jokers. Who ar they trying to deceive? Well we don't need the police to tell us those that killed us; we ar well aware.

And i ask who are those hoodlums If they where militants you would have heard them mention it, and even increase the casualty figure. Police God is watching you all in 3D.

hmmm

Arase had been cautioned.
So don't be surprised.

I don't know who you are or where you are from but I pray one thing for you and your kinsmen that these herdsmen visit you guys. Then someone will write and ask for two sides of the story. God bless you
