Today is a Very Sad Moment for the People of Enugu State as Fulani Herdsmen Invaded the Sleepy Community of Ndiagu, Attakwu, Akegbe-Ugwu in Nkanu-West Local Government Area of Enugu State, in early Thursday morning, by over 50 Fulani Herdsmen armed with machetes, Killed a Catholic Seminarian, Lazarus Nwafor and others.
Four members of the Ogbodo Nwarum family, where Nwafor, the Seminarian, who finished his apostolic work at St. Patrick Catholic Church, Ndiagu ,Attakwu, last Tuesday, was a tenant, sustained severe machete cuts from the rampaging Fulani herdsmen who slit the stomach of a six months pregnant Mrs. Nwarum in the operation that started at about 2.15AM Until his death, Nwafor, was a seminarian at the Catholic Spiritan International School of Theology, CSIST, Attakwu. The injured victims, are in critical conditions at the Mother of Christ Teaching Hospital and Parklane Teaching Hospital Enugu.
The agrarian community which is 10 minutes drive from Enugu metropolis has been decimated flowing from the attack. Economic activities have grounded to a halt while a deafening graveyard silence hung copious in the air. Women and children wailed profusely even as elderly men, youths lamented uncontrollable over the brazen manner, with which the Fulani herdsmen have raped, robbed, maimed and taken over their farmlands.
Why is the Enugu govt. quiet dis is absord and absolute nonsense if the govt refuses to do smething d youths should rise and defend deir people.
