ChoCandyDiamond:
You are just typing trash,some Igala are indigenous in Anambra,they no born hausa-fulani people well make them begin to go house to house in SE/SS burning houses openly and killing people and turning people into refugee in their fathers land as they did in Lagos,it will be a greatest abomination for that to happen,dont compare it with fulani herdsmen that hit and run or land dispute/communal clash between one Igala village and Aguleri village in Anambra, this one is an open confrontation and killing.

....... what is ur stress wit Lagos.....Igbo is eating fried rice to anoda person matter......shame
