Six persons were feared dead yesterday at Adani in Uzo-Uwani Local Council of Enugu State, following a clash between armed herdsmen and Eastern Security Network (ESN).

Trouble reportedly started when some herdsmen allegedly shot a member of Igga community in his farm and blocked sympathisers from taking the victim to the hospital.

It was gathered that the refusal to allow the wounded farmer get treated triggered rumpus that attracted members of ESN to the scene, leading to a showdown.


A source, however, said that it was amid the attempt to resuscitate the young man with bullet wound that some angry youths on motorcycles stormed the scene and started shooting at those barricading the farmer from receiving medical attention.

The ensuing fracas, The Guardian gathered, led to many residents of Adani, an agricultural community, fleeing the area to neighbouring communities in Nsukka and Igboetiti local councils.

Some residents of Adani, who spoke on condition of anonymity, claimed that hunters and even some local vigilante had encountered some unfamiliar faces suspected to be ESN personnel in the forests in the area, who told them that they were not after law-abiding residents.

The Commissioner of Police, Mohammed Aliyu, and other top security operatives in the state visited Adani yesterday for fact-finding at the scene of the incident.

The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Daniel Ndukwe, who accompanied the CP on the mission, confirmed the incident and promised to make details available in due course.

Those people who fled for safety are cowards and are wise as well.

Herdsmen come into your farm, destroys your crop.

You object! and call the police, the police is one of the herdsmen!

You object! They bring out their guns and knives and injure you to murder you!

The community is afraid. They have heard of Oyigbo.

The community just want the body of their slain kinsman.

The herdsmen refuse! The owners of the cow is a major in the military or the president.

The eastern security network arrives, they demand for the body!

The herdsmen trigger their weapons, and people are dead.

The community members become displaced! they flee their community, abandon their farms!

The commissioner of police, who is also a Mohammed Aliyu arrives, most of the herdsmen are mohammed Aliyu.

The commissioner arrives after, the herdsmen have ploughed and looted the community already and injured the defenders and put fears in neighbouring communities.

Their are no arrests, not a single cow confiscated.

The herdsmen move on, while the bodies of the defenders and the easterners decay.

I don't know why some Fulani's feel they can kill man in his own land without consequences.no wahala ,Buhari and the Fulani's will not rule forever.2023 will lead to a lot of events.

Gaurdians of the Eastern galaxy

ESN should shoot anything Fulani on sight. No need beating round the bush. Any Buhari supporter is a treat to human life.

Come 2023, We need someone that will undo all the wrongs Buhari and his Fulani gang has subjected all the geopolitical zones in Nigeria to over the last 6 years. That is why Tinubu isn't the right candidate because is going to dance to the tunes of his Fulani masters

So where in your write up did you establish that six people were killed?

No event will happen. Nigerians are cowards, most especially the race from the SS/SE/SW.

I'm glad they are being challenged at least.

Herdsmen keep biting more than they chew on a steady basis

That means you're not following events in Nigeria recently. SE through ESN is combating the menace fiercely, so you should have narrowed down your coward tag to SW

God bless ESN, when the Fulani miscreants reach heaven, they should explain to God what they were doing in the forest.

The question remains, if ESN didn't rise up to the occasion in challenging those bastards...


Who would have protected those defenceless people against armed terrorist herdsmen? You all can now see why all our governors need to be lined up and shot dead execution style? their height of negligence is inexcusable.

thunder fire all Tinubu urchins

may peace be far from them masha Allah amin

Not sure if you're daft, how those this rubbish correlate with the report?

Afonja please stop consoling yourself by manufacturing stories in your imagination just like your co afonja MuchAdo. The story is clear that it was ESN that opened fire on the herdsmen that were barricading people from getting medical help for the man they shot earlier. We are not like the cowardly Benin refugees so stop consoling yourself by trying to paint fake pictures that will make it seem as if the situation in the east is the same with your own OK. ESN gat us covered. I bet if this happened in your place nothing would have happened to the Fulani miscreants but see how ESN quickly arrived the scene and wasted the miscreants.

Illiterate you can't read abi you are still suffering from PTSD over what the Fulani herdsmen did to your people? You think south east is like your region? In the east, if you do anyhow, you go collect.

Abascoh:
God bless ESN, when the Fulani miscreants reach heaven, they should explain to God what they were doing in the forest.

Which heaven? People that are sipping hot kunu in hell fire already.

No comment

God bless ESN

let's watch and see.

My own is that someone needs to call these thieveing Banks to other regarding their unscrupulous deductions from people's account. This country is indeed a mess. We have agencies responsible for checkmating these excesses but thanks to corruption and non chalancy they are as good as dead. small money enter persin account they go just cut 300 naira commot for no reason. well.. their day of reckoning will surely come.

why is a fulani Mohammed Aliyu commissioner in enugu
Do we have same in the north
