The Nigerian Security Forces appear incapable of stopping the wanton killing and destruction of properties by the Fulani herdsmen. So the killing spree continues, as Nigeria gradually turns into a killing field.
The spokesman of the Nigeria Police in Enugu State, Mr Ebere Amaraizu has confirmed to newsmen in Nsukka that five people were killed in Uzo-Uwani on Monday by armed fulani herdsmen.
An eyewitness, who pleaded anonymity, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) about 300 suspected herdsmen invaded the community with guns and machetes, shooting indiscriminately.
“As they were killing the people, they were also setting houses and vehicles ablaze. Many people have been killed; I do not have the actual number.
The residents of Nimbo and motorists have fled the community for safety,” the witness said.
According to NAN reports, many displaced persons,who fled from Nimbo, are now taking refuge in primary schools in Nsukka.
