Ex Ohanaeze leader Justice Ozobu spoke on the recent invasion by the herdsmen and said the issue needs to be controlled fast and his people were on the fringe of death and anarchy. Ozobu, who is now the Traditional ruler of Imeziowa community of Ezeagu LGA area revealed he knows nothing if the security agents in the state are doing anything to stop the herdsmen.
He said: “I do not know what government has done or any action taken by security operatives to checkmate the insurgency by the Fulani herdsmen. These people who we thought carry only sticks and machetes now carry AK47 rifles openly and we wonder where they got those guns from. “People no longer go to farm anymore and every one now lives in fear of these people.
They come in and settle down as if it is their home, nobody is doing anything to stop them.
“In my own place, my brother who retired as a police officer, came out in the night and asked them what they were doing with guns they were carrying. At some point, he had to bring out his gun and shot two of them.”
