The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council, OYC, has expressed outrage over the early Monday attack by Fulani herdsmen in Uzo-Uwani Local Government Area of Enugu
DAILY POST had reported that the attack left many people dead and others with deadly injuries.
OYC, in a statement by its President-General, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike and the Secretary-General, Comrade Obinna Achuonye said the attack was unacceptable.“We woke up yet again to another orge of killings by marauding Fulani herdsmen. This is not the first time Uzo-Uwani is experiencing this kind of carnage, as we have not forgotten in a hurry how Nimbo in the area came under similar deadly attack leaving scores dead.
“This is the kind of situation that necessitated the IPOB into the formation of ESN, as they watched helplessly over the years and our people were being slaughtered,” the OYC said. “We saw just a few days ago how the Army announced that they have smashed the camp of ESN in Amagunze Enugu State, but the same military is unable to enter the bushes and capture Fulani herdsmen who are sending our people to their graves and raping our women.”
