SOFTENGR:

All I know is that this barbaric act only happens in a jungle.

IpobAntidote:
Na Fulani Herdsmen oh !!!


Igbos can NEVER be this barbaric, this must be the handy work of Fulani Herdsmen with orders from Buhari.


Sure the Criminal Association of Nigeria - CAN will soon disclose the true names of the Fulani perpetrators.

oluwaseyi000:
Death everywhere, in as much as North with her Boko Haram and Fulani herdsmen are menace, the south when given the chance is no difference

Jabioro:
It has nothing to do with tribal ,this is a boundary war between two communities because of natural resources found on it..wetin concerned CAN now

Giftedtu:
This is not in the south south

MelesZenawi:
Cross river state again??

What is wrong with cross river state people?

Fighting over land that is not yours......barbaric.

PHijo:


How do you know it is not theirs?

Sad thing is that there are thousands of these kinds of land dispute across Nigeria and no Nigerian government has developed a framework for resolving such disputes in the last 6 decades. The conflicts are further exacerbated by the elite and public perception that opportunities are limited in Nigeria.

There is a need to come up with solutions that will diffuse tensions like this. Economic growth cannot function under such circumstances.

Jabioro:
We have no active and proactive government system in Nigeria.If we do the state or federal government supposed to have seized the land completely from the two warring communities before it generates to the barbarian acting.Seized the land completely it won't belong to any one,if they can't enshrined peace within each other and share the royality..they should be ready to loose it all

Jestin:
I will never forget that candid advise my dad use to give me ....Son, do not fight over land

No fewer than two persons were killed, while 10 others declared missing on Monday at Isu community in Arochukwu Local Government Area of Abia State over a boundary clash with their Utuma neighbours in Biase Local Government Area and Ukwa Odukpani LGA of Cross River State.

For some years now, the Isu clan have been locked in a bloody land dispute with their Utuma neighbours in Cross River State.

Sources said gunmen invaded the Isu community about 8a.m. and shot dead two people and fled.

President General of Isu community, Elder Felix Okoro, said gunmen had laid siege to Isu land where they killed two natives while about 10 persons were missing.

Okoro disclosed that the hoodlum came from the disputed area at Iheosu-Isu to attack the natives who had been taking refuge at a location in the community.
He said: “The hoodlums invaded Isu clan this morning (yesterday) and shot dead two persons. We have been suffering attacks from our Utuma neighbours.

“This conflict started when limestone was discovered in Isu community and the Utuma have been laying claim to it, killing Isu people. Over 100 houses have been burnt and 60 persons killed with three villages sacked.

“For about two years now, the people of Iheosu-Isu and other villages have fled from the land because they were being killed and their houses burnt. They have become internally displaced persons (IDPs) in their land.

“The IDPs are now quartered at Ohabuike Primary School, Obieze-Isu. We are calling on the Federal and state government to protect Isu people before they kill all of us.

“We have a state of emergency at hand with the over 3,500 IDPs at the primary school. Isu people are grateful to the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) and the Abia State government for sending relief materials.

“It costs the community N2 million monthly to buy food, clothing and drugs for them. The IDPs cannot farm because their lands have been taken over and their houses burnt. Any Isu man who goes to the Iheosu-Isu is killed.

“Isu people are worried about the situation. We are being slaughtered like chicken. The Deputy Governors of Abia and Cross Rivers States have visited Isu and Utuma and appealed for peace, yet our Utuma and Ukwa neighbours won’t allow us to live in peace.

“We no longer go to the disputed area which is our land, but they have continued to attack us.”

Okoro urged the National Boundary Commission (NBC) as well as the Abia and Cross River State governments to urgently make further efforts to protect lives and property.

The Abia State Police Commissioner, Mr. Ene Okon, said the area was now calm.

Wicked man, with no humanity at all

Commentor:
Hope not herdsmen?

If not it is ok.

The thinking of Nigerians Igbos today.

Just turn the place to barracks for the army.

einsteine:


What's homogeneous there?

It is across two states (Abia and Cross River) with different ethnic groups.

Giftedtu:
Abeg wait o ayam not understanding so because of
that ayam confuse. how does cross river share a bandary with abia instead of Akwa ibom, And you also have to pass throgh Odukpani to akamkpa before you get to Biase? or is it a diffrent biase from that of cross river?

XANDERBOY85:


You display your crass idiocy with every subsequent inane post you make!

Anuofia!

BabaEleyele:

As I'm typing now Fulani herdsmen are using your people for suya in Ondo and Ogun State, be investing your yaribanza energy on some border dispute between two communities with the same culture and background

MelesZenawi:
Garfield1 should warn his people to stay clear of anything east.

garfield1:
Wow

MelesZenawi:


Stop dragging our land

garfield1:

Let me find out from neutral parties about the origin of the feud and the ownership of the land in contention

Youngzedd:


Cross Riverians aren't Igbos. None of the tribes in that state speaks Igbo. There are about 60 languages spoken in this state.

You see fighting?

It is their hobby .
