Government of propaganda.

The entire blame should go to governor Obiano, his asslicking of Buhari has made him an enemy unto his own people. He should learn from what happened to Gov Otorm of Benue state.

David Onwuchekwa, Nnewi

Hoodlums suspected to be herdsmen at the weekend stormed Anambra West Local Government Area of Anambra State, leaving six people dead, some of them beheaded.

An eyewitness, Mr Orjiako Nnaluo (Ideh Anam) who spoke to journalists said that the herdsmen stormed farm settlements known as Agweopia Camp, Iyiogbu Camp and Iyinkolo, respectively around 5:40a.m and started killing people, burning houses and raping many women.

Mr Nnaluo said before people of the area could know what was going on, the herdsmen had killed six people, leaving about 30 others with various degrees of injuries.

The injured, he said, are currently receiving treatment in an undisclosed hospital.

He called on the Anambra State government to quickly come to their rescue, saying that all the local farmers had all deserted the area.

He said that the farmers were trying to recover from a previous attack by the herdsmen, which he said claimed three lives.

He said the governor of Anambra State, Chief Willie Obiano was aware of the case and had promised to resolve it.

Speaking on the incident, the Anglican Bishop of Mbamili Diocese, the Rt. Rev. Henry Okechukwu Okeke condemned the killings by the attackers, describing it as unfortunate, obnoxious and inhuman.

“This is a very unfortunate incident because these are core farmers. They are the food basket of Anambra State. Definitely, it is going to affect not only the economy of our state, but the country generally. It has been confirmed, I got the news this morning about the killings. Now, following the incident, farmers have left their farmlands. The Fulani people are also on the run. So, it is an unfortunate situation. I want to say it clearly that the Federal Government has the key. They must not sit down and watch people being killed by the herdsmen and their farms being destroyed. But Fulani men have been around here for some years now, but the recent destruction of farms has brought about unhealthy situations.

“The Federal Government actually has to do something. They should summon the leaders of the herdsmen and the rest of them. I think with that this fire can be quenched now. The government of Anambra State instructed farmers through their Igwes to allow herdsmen graze their cattle, but the word ‘allow’ must be interpreted because when you say allow, what do you mean? Is it to allow them to graze and destroy farms crops? Is it to allow them to continue to cause trouble? If you allow someone to stay in your land and do his business, there must be restrictions, there must be a border line, of course, you know that 99.9 per cent of Anambra West are farmers. They are farmers or do you expect farmers to fold their arms and watch the herdsmen kill them and destroy their farms? Anambra West is a hospitable environment people who are so much accommodating. They have accommodated the herdsmen over the years, who have turned against them, killing and maiming their hosts, “ the bishop said.

Bishop Okeke, however, advised the youths of Anambra West not to take the laws into their hands even as he called on the stakeholders to intervene, adding that Anambra West was vibrating as the youths have now prepared themselves against sudden attack by the herdsmen.

He further decried the lack of presence of security men in the council.

In the same vein, the Anambra West Youth President, Mr John David called on the youths to remain calm and law-abiding, noting that the issue would soon be resolved.

When contacted on phone, the Anambra State Police Command Spokesman, Mr Haruna Muhammed (SP) said: “How do you know they are Fulani herdsmen. The attackers are not confirmed yet. There was an incident at Anambra West Local Government Area and police are still investigating it.”

How many people have been killed over Gold mining in Ebonyi state and Osun state? The bandits are plain terrorists herdsmen.

madridguy:
The project is not completed and it's already rotten Ambode is nothing but a wasteful spender.

so you can even say the truth about an APC governor? Are a Sanwo Olu boy?

What about importing grass from Brazil for Fulani cattle? Zoogeria.

14 years imprisonment loading.

drtwist:
Well this was made possible by the foundation laid by the Tinubu camp ! Which they use every medium to mobilize the midia against GEJ government

unfortunately, they had effectively turned themselves into willing slaves.

A deeper life school? This is very bad. Let me just ignore the tribal angle to this news. Majority of sex offense news are from a particular tribe.

Nairaland would eventually be destroyed by the tribalism been promoted by the owner.

any information on this project?

Does the present government understand what diversification truly means?
All they know is farming farming, return back to the farm.
How far have they supported tech since they came on board, how far have they supported small and medium scale enterprise and not that charades called trader moni.

How far have they attracted businesses men and women and investors from neighboring countries instead we have lost to Ghana, Benin etc.

Buhari and his men only understands subsistent agriculture so that's what they can only work with.

Uglyaddy:
Good all.

I have a decked 2 flats 3 bedroom each building.I have no intention to stay there for now nor have any plan soon to continue the upper part of the building.

My plan is to complete the flats by doing the plastering,windows,electrical works and painting to enable me rent out the place.

Since the building is a decked house and not roofed or nor any building yet at the top,is their anything I can apply under the decking inside not to make it hot when sunny or in the night.

I was told such house do cause a lot of heat and is always very unbearable for the occupants.

My people,I look forward to all your advice.

Thanks.

There's no heat problem, you should instead be worried about the concrete deck leaking after a few years. It's an unpleasant experience.

Hordes of residents have escaped to the mountains to take refuge, while those trapped in their homes were crying with deafening sounds of gunshots followed by explosions in the background. The insurgents, SaharaReporters understands, also had the audacity to enter a filling station to refuel some of their cars

Suspected Boko Haram terrorists are currently on the rampage in Michika Local Government Area of Adamawa State, SaharaReporters can report.

Hordes of residents have escaped to the mountains to take refuge, while those trapped in their homes were crying with deafening sounds of gunshots followed by explosions in the background. The insurgents, SaharaReporters understands, also had the audacity to enter a filling station to refuel some of their cars.

"Boko Haram has taken over michika," a resident screamed to SaharaReporters on the phone before going off the line abruptly.

Narrating the incident, a resident of Michika who simply gave his name as Sebastian, told SaharaReporters: "It’s really sad for us in Michika, because Boko Haram guys have struck again. Personally, I'm not in Michika at the moment, but my mum and siblings have managed to escape to the mountains where they're taking refuge as I speak with you. Only God can help us now.”

Adamu Daniel, another resident, said: “I called home from Maiduguri only to hear my sister's cries and I could hear a loud bang in the background; shortly thereafter, her phone went off. I'm so scared now and I haven’t been able to reach them again.”

Wosini Marwa, a resident of the neighbouring Bazza town, said: "We heard that Boko Haram people have entered a village called Kwapa, between Shuwa and Michika, so we've been placed on red alert.”

Also a former Michika Local Council Chairman, who preferred not to be named, confirmed: "Presently, we have fled to the mountains. Only God knows what will happen to us."

However, the state Police Command could not confirm the attack outright, as Othman Abubakar, the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), told our correspondent: "I'm getting to hear about the attack from you, but please give me some time to verify what happened.”

As of the time of filing this report, he had not responded.

Michika is one of the 14 LGAs where the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is expected to conduct supplementary governorship election on March 23

That is why I always respect the north.. Both presidential and governorship elections, zero deaths and they are the least region in Nigeria that are educated but yet, we the educated ones are killings ourselves... Politics is meant for the northerners..thats just it

last election was a killing and kidnapping spree in the North. yesterday's own was the same story. Go to vanguard newspaper website for the news.

kogi2010:
true or false?

first oghene is not igbo and your English is terrible.

By this time in 2015 , Results were already out and the loser congratulatd the winner. This INEC chairman should respect himself o.

zoogeria where human life have no value. The president ordered extra judicial killings for suspects of electoral offenses.

finally, we must all marry. so learn to control your future wife.

But Igbos are not tribalists?

Hypocrisy dey smell.

sorry for derailing but can i get a copy of your building plans for the self contained apartments.you can just snap them with a camera phone. i'm sorry for the inconviniences.thanks and remain blessed.

carinmom:
I guess they are your relatives right? Some of you on Nairaland are just disgusting and heartless.

chairman, even the video of El rufai paying a visit to the area showed no corpses. I don't want to point out that these corpses are not Fulani by mere looking, compare them to the pictures of the Fulani shown to notice the difference in physical appearance.

Buhari failed to respond to the accusation in Nigeria but did so in Poland? The cabal handling him have very deep seated problems.

Raylight2:
I want to ask if it is the duty of a guy to fix the bad attitude of his fiance. for example, a lady that gets angry easily and uses rude words at the moment of anger, is it advisable for a guy to remain in such relationship trying to fix her up or give her time to fix herself up? this is my present situation. Honestly, I put the relationship on hold. I really don't know if I acted well so I need guidance from those who care to help a stranger.

thank you

people hardly change(especially, beautifull ladies that gets lots of attention from men), you're likely wasting your time if you think that she would change.

A 400L lecturer of the department of political science in Unilorin have suprised his students with the least expected question in one of their exam. The course title is Election Process. Questions asked includes; Mention the names of the 77 presidential candidates in the 2019 election; name the 77 political parties contesting in the 2019 election and name the 77 party chairmen in the 2019 election.

Substandard question that have nothing to do with theory taught in the course. This is current affairs not academic theory and even the INEC chairman can't answer it. The examination should be cancelled and the lecturer reprimanded.

AlhajiYoung:

these are not Fulani.

Why should the lecturer insult her mother? F4ck her too.Nigerian lecturers lack manners snd self respect.
