NEF Gives Edo 14 Days Ultimatum To Compensate Families Of Northern Travellers by InfoGuru118(op): 8:27am On Mar 30, 2025
The Northern Elders Forum (NEF) has blown hot over the killing of northern hunters in Uromi, Edo state, saying that the North has tolerated enough and will no longer condone such acts, News360 Nigeria reports.

NEF made the position known through Professor Abubakar Jika Jiddere, spokesperson of the Forum.

In a statement, on Saturday, he said, “NEF received the shocking, sad, and deeply disturbing news of the barbaric, extra-judicial, and cowardly killing of innocent Northern hunters who were returning home to celebrate the end of Ramadan and Eid Kabir Sallah festival with their families in Uromi, Edo State. This heinous act is totally unacceptable, and we condemn it in the strongest terms.

“The North has tolerated numerous acts of recklessness from some Southern part of Nigeria in the past. This must come to an end.

“The arrest and trial of all individuals responsible for the attack and the brutal killings of the innocent travellers. The NEF demands a public prosecution of the perpetrators and those that aided the crime to ensure full transparency and accountability.

“The due payment of compensation to the families of the victims, in line with the prescribed standards of their respective faiths.

“An unreserved apology from the people and authorities of Edo State, with a commitment to ensuring that such barbaric behavior never occurs again. An unreserved apology from the Edo State Government to the North for this heinous attack on its people. The punishment of the perpetrators must be witnessed by the public to serve as a deterrent to any such future acts of violence.”

The NEF also demanded that the Edo State Government and the Federal Government take concrete and visible steps to fulfill these demands within fourteen (14) days from the date of the release.

“Failure to do so will compel the North to take all necessary actions to seek justice for her people and the North,” it added.

It further called on the Federal Government to ensure that justice is served to the victims and their families to preserve peace, stability, and the peaceful coexistence of all Nigerians.

To hell with all of you hypocrites. How many families did you elders compensate in Agatu when Fulani herdsmen killed over 100 people in one night ? Amadioha and Ogun kill all of you

These people are really mad
Northerners have been kidnapping, raping, destroying farms, killing, sacking villages and all sorts of atrocities in the south, the foolish idiots kept quiet all the while

Kudos to those who chose to deliver justice to people found with guns and weapons. I wish the same justice will be meted out on anybody irrespective of tribe, found with guns, when they are not security Personnel

Of course our asslicking governors will always be ready to put their people under the bus just to please the Northerners
Let's sha enjoy the one nigeria we love so much

Seriously it's painful to execute people passing through to celebrate Ramadan....


Many years ago, I travelled through Kogi state and we faced a mob of youths stopping vehicles to search for Igbos to kill them.

They claimed that, one igbo transit killed one of their own on a high speed. While the person was crossing the expressway.

We learned that they went and destroyed igbos shop around the Okene and was looking for any igbo man to revenge....

Eventually, there was no casualties as we made calls through and the governor was informed and peace restored.

Ogbeni sharrap there
How does this relate to this event or you want to whip up stupid sentiment.

Are southerners searching for innocent northerners to kill to revenge the killings and kidnappings carried out by Northerners?

As an igbo man, if you find any igbo anywhere carrying guns when he is not a security personnel, send the person to hell!!!!

Sharrap there!!!!!

Hmm......

But same you criticize the government when they go after IPOBs the ESN and other terrorists killing and kidnapping people in the name of Biafra.

Go to your forest and find the kidnappers and killers hiding there... or better still mount youths to manhunt them.... Not pushing the blame to Hausas because you assume they're all bad....
Re: NEF Gives Edo 14 Days Ultimatum To Compensate Families Of Northern Travellers by Quarterpast(m): 8:54am On Mar 30, 2025
Nobody will compensate them. These set of bloodthirsty marauding herdsmen have being wrecking havoc on families and people's properties and nobody has ever compensated any of the fatalities. They are not better than those they have been killing. Nobody has monotony of evil or violence

As I said before anybody found with gun who is not a security personnel should be Sent to hell. I don't care the name they go by.
And those ones hiding in the forests anyday they are caught let the tyres smoke to the sky too

I don't care whether it's igbo, yoruba or hausa, send them all to hell!!!!. For your info I don't hate other tribes the way you hate Igbos, and I don't do that unconscious bias bigots like you do.

The same way I see an Igbo that is illegally armed is the same way I see an hausa that is illegally armed. They all deserve to be sent straight to hell

The NEF is a group of stupid and bias old men who are hypocritical by their statements. How many families whose loved ones were killed by Fulani herdsmen have been compensated? Why have the group not called the affected states governors to compensate the families? Killings should be condemned in all ramifications, don't wait till it happens to you before you speak against it

Like I use to say, ANYBODY either a security personnel or individuals found with any arms without a proper identification is a criminal. Including those idiots in black uniforms carrying guns without a name tag are criminals until proven innocent.

Hahahahaaa, e pain them!

Make Ogun Kee any idiot wey go compensate them.

All the people Fulani Hitmen killed, how many times did NEF compensate the villagers?


When they tell you people that nobody has the monopoly of violence, you would think it's a joke.

If not that Yoruba people have sworn to side you guys evils, North no supposed reach south for any level.

Seems mention of igbos gives u guys ventilation and ur very existence.. The way u formulate stupid lies just to bring igbos to matter of discussion is really pathetic.

The driver had igbo written on his face and vehicle.. and if he was caught and identified,they did not kill him to avenge their accidental loss but looking for igbos in transit to kill


Pathetic liar

Drivers and parks suppose disclose to last park if they are carrying legitimate professional arms of passengers ahead of the journey. This is better in the event they are stopped by public. Fulani dey pass my farm with dane guns and dogs, even stop for free water in my farm borehole.
