Abia State To Pay N2 Million For Each Murdered Cattle Trader In Abia by Maxymilliano(op): 7:30am On Mar 01, 2022
Following the killing of nine persons at a cattle market, the Abia State Government, on Monday, sent a delegation to condole with the families of the deceased in Gombe State.

Seven of the victims, who were killed by hoodlums, were said to be indigenes of Gombe State.

According to the acting President, Cattle Dealers Association of Nigeria, Yahuza Yusuf, no government from the southern part of the country had shown sympathy to the body like the Abia State Governor, Okezie Ikpeazu.

He disclosed that the governor, who made it clear that he could not compensate for the lives lost, promised N2m naira each to the families of the deceased, which had yet to be redeemed, adding that about N150,000 had been provided.

“We asked him (Ikpeazu) to pay for our damages and he said he couldn’t pay for all our damages, but he gave us N150,000 as the worth of each cow and he promised to support the affected families to survive and additional N2m to the families, but that has yet to be paid,” Yusuf stated.

He also revealed that the association went to Abia State to bring back surviving members, noting that Ikpeazu objected to the decision.

“The governor said the people were under his care; he gave us good attention and we stayed with him for more than three hours. That is the only governor who did that to us since all these things happened in the South,” Yusuf added.

On his part, the representative of the governor and paramount ruler of Abriba, Kalu Ogbu, expressed sadness over the killings.

Ogbu stated, “I’m here to extend our sympathy and condolences to the people and the government of Abia State. The incident is sad and I don’t know how to explain it. There is no word to explain what happened as it was the handiwork of misguided fellows.

“Thank God that our governor has taken up the responsibility to make sure that those behind it are caught to face the full wrath of the law.”

I don't support violence on any tribe whatsoever but this stupidity of a governor has to be called to order. His state is in a mess but he chose to pleas his northern musketeers. Thorns of igbos have been killed up north and the govt didn't have 2 bleeps to give.

Who then pays for each murdered farmer? The equation should be balanced. No asslicking.

Zero compensation. They will rather blame herdsmen from Libya for being responsible.

Equation doesn't even exist in Nigeria talkless of balancing it. The killer herdsmen often return to perpetuate more damage.

Ikpeazụ onye nzuzu. How many have the North paid for the Igbos killed by Fulani herdsmen and bandits?

All these asslicking will never make you to be in the good books of a hausa fulani man. Ask Okoroawusa! You still remain an ịnya mmiri!

Re: Abia State To Pay N2 Million For Each Murdered Cattle Trader In Abia by dokyOloye:
I condemn murder and destruction, but this is utterly senseless and insensitive.
How many times has any northern govt offered even ordinary apology for the cyclical killings Igbos have been enduring in d north?
As recent as 2016,Mrs Bridget Agbahime simply told her neighbour in her shop not to perform ablution in front of her own shop.
The terrorist started shouting "blasphemy blasphemy".
A crowd of terrorists immediately gathered and killed the woman.
Kano state govt initially arrested the terrorist
neighbour who falsely accused the woman and put him on trial.
After a while,THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF KANO ENTERED A NO CASE SUBMISSION AND THE TERRORIST WAS FREED.
The terrorist neighbour went back and continued threatening the dead woman's widower till the man had to pack his load and leave Kano after living there for more than 30yrs
Has anybody ever apologised to the family?

Southern Nigeria always quick to compensate Northerners for any loss caused in their own land.But wait until same herdsmen killed on their land justice won't prevail and families won't be compensated.
Re: Abia State To Pay N2 Million For Each Murdered Cattle Trader In Abia by Guyman02: 7:46am On Mar 01, 2022
This killing is condemned, it's a terrorists act not supported by Igbos.
Re: Abia State To Pay N2 Million For Each Murdered Cattle Trader In Abia by Nwaotu10(m): 7:46am On Mar 01, 2022
Such gesture should be extended to those whose family members were butchered by Fulani herdsmen.

It's madness really!
Meaning that the killings over the years by the cattle herders all across the country doesn't mean anything.

There was a country!

Paying 2m for cow in a state where basic education is not free and many kids are out of school. Who vote this drug addict?
Let the fulani carry their cow to their ranch or leave people's farm lands.
