In our previous report, some Fulani herdsmen allegedly invaded Agbonchia in Eleme Local Government Area of Rivers, destroyed farms and r*ped several women.
Olainfo reported that, the Fulani cattle herder started attacking the people of the community on Monday leaving many people to flee the area for the fear of further attack. Residents had staged a protest on Friday to seek government intervention and evict the killer herdsemen from their land.
According one of the residents who spoke with our correspondent, he confirmed the herders invaded their farms with cows and destroyed their cassavas. He also added that, they attacked a motorcyclist, cut him with machet and snatched his bike.
The government of Rivers state seems to be less concerned as nothing has been done to respond to the cries and yearnings of the people after several attacks by the terrorist herdsmen.
However, in a latest development, the supreme leader of the IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu has ordered the men of Eastern Security Network (ESN) Into the community to restore sanity and peace.
This is coming after several attacks on the community when some cattle herders stormed Agbonchia, wrecked farm lands and @ssaulted their women.
In a latest tweet, Kanu has given the ESN operatives order to move into the community and get rid of the terrorists. He also described governor as a ‘joke’ for not responding to the crisis that broke out under his watch.
