The herders were attacked at their settlement in Ogbaru LGA while asleep and their animals forcefully taken away by the gunmen numbering about 40


Gunmen abduct 10 herders, ‘steal 300 cows’ in Anambra, demand N4 million
The herders were attacked at their settlement in Ogbaru LGA while asleep and their animals forcefully taken away by the gunmen numbering about 40.

Some gunmen, Saturday, reportedly abducted 10 members of the Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) in Obene Community, Ogbaru Local Government Area of Anambra State.

The Nation reported that the incident happened at the herders’ settlement in the council area around 1:30 a.m.

The gunmen, who reportedly stole over 300 cows, then demanded N4 million ransom from families of the victims.

The South-east Chairman of MACBAN, Gidado Siddiki made this known on Saturday, according to the paper.

Mr Siddiki said that the herders were attacked at their settlement while asleep and their animals forcefully taken away by the gunmen numbering about 40.

The attackers reportedly invaded the area with weapons such as guns, cutlasses, sticks and charms.

“As I speak to you now, I have reported the incident to the Police and DSS for prompt action,” the newspaper quoted Mr Siddiki as saying.

The MACBAN leader appealed to the kidnappers to release his members and cows.

He condemned the politicisation of the herdsmen and host communities conflict across the country.

He said the herdsmen were always accused of crimes, even in situations where they were the victims of attack.

Mr Siddiki blamed the face-off between herdsmen, farmers and host communities on lack of “accurate communication”.

He commended Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State for initiating a peace and reconciliation committee to address the security challenges in the state and the South-east region at large.

The police spokesperson in the state, Tochukwu Ikenga, has confirmed the incident.

He asked the leadership of Miyetti Allah in the state to come up with more information that would enable the police to commence “aggressive investigation” into the matter.

“Yes, we are aware of the incident, but we want the Miyetti Allah leadership to supply us with more information, since the kidnappers have established ransom contact with the victims’ families,” he said.
Mr Ikenga, a deputy superintendent of police, urged the Miyetti Allah leadership not to resort to self-help in trying to rescue the victims.

The police spokesperson assured that the Commissioner of Police in the state, Echeng Echeng, and other security agencies would do everything possible to rescue the victims from their abductors.

Attacks by armed men have increased in the South-east in recent times.

The attacks often target security agencies and government facilities. The recent attack on the cattle breeders appears to be a novelty.

The Nigerian government has accused the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra of being responsible for the deadly attacks in the South-east. But the group has repeatedly denied their involvement in the attacks.

The separatist group is leading agitation for an independent state of Biafra to be carved out from the South-east and some parts of the South-south Nigeria.

Leader of the group, Nnamdi Kanu, is currently detained in Abuja where he is facing trial for alleged treason.

Elder statesman and Afenifere leader, Pa Ayo Adebanjo and South-South leader, Chief Edwin Clark, alongside other eminent Nigerians are set to participate in a dialogue aimed at making a stronger advocacy for a Nigerian President of Igbo extraction in next year’s general election.

The Greater Nigeria Conference, GNC, which is slated for Monday at the International Conference Centre, ICC, Abuja, is led by a former Governor of Enugu state, Chief Okwesilieze Nwodo, Sen. Victor Umeh and Sen Chris Anyanwu among other Igbo patriots at home and in the diaspora

A statement from the GNC Media Office signed by Collins Steve Ugwu disclosed that the conference is organized as a pan-Nigerian dialogue by the non-partisan ‘Nzuko Umunna’, a global Igbo Think-Tank.
It is dedicated towards awakening the best ethnic and political fraternities of Nigerians to appreciate the binding need for accommodation and sacrifice, in supporting a Nigerian President from the South-East region of Nigeria come 2023 elections.

“The plannings are complete, the audience is ready, and more patriotic Nigerians are now selfless in championing the truth, that our country can only get better and faster on the wheels of equality, justice, fairness and deliberate inclusion, to all her citizens, especially the Southeast people of Nigeria,” Ugwu added.

He said aside the nationalist patriots expected in Abuja from all over the country, four governors from the Southeast, who will play central roles to the big idea of a Nigerian President from the Southeast persuasion project, will also be in attendance.
It is already heart warming, and a sign of great awareness what one of them, Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo state declared passionately this week that Ndigbo have cried enough on their marginalization, and Nigerians should grant the region a fair playing ground, come 2023 general elections for the Presidency.

“Hear him in clear sync with the GNC project: ‘No one in Nigeria can deny the fact that Ndigbo are zealous, patriotic and committed to the oneness of Nigeria. All that they demand is a level playing field for all of us to operate and compete’.

“Amplifying this firm and fair resolve, he again called Nigerians’ attention to history, thus, ‘Most of the patriots who engineered the plan that made the Southwest region produce the presidential candidates for the two major political parties in 1999 are still alive and active in Nigerian politics.

“‘That same underlying love for the country that inspired them to do what they did for the Southwest in 1999, should inspire them to do the same for the Southeast in 2023′. 

“That simply is a factual foretaste to the many more of what Greater Nigeria Conference will put in the front burner, as it gathers all the presidential aspirants from Southeast before Nigerians to dialogue and persuade the election of one as Nigeria President in the spirit of together-we-can-do-better for this country,” he stated
