Tension was high at the Garki Area of Enugu State
on Wednesday following a deadly clash between
the Fulani and the Igbos.

Already, the police in the state confirmed to DAILY
POST that two persons were killed during the
bloody clash.

The deceased persons were identified as one Ali, a
Fulani and Ifeanyi Ifeacho, an Igbo.

The incident is coming few days after a policeman
was killed at the New Artisan Market, prompting
the closure of the market by the State Government.

According to an eyewitness, trouble started when
Ali came from the New Artisan Market with a cow
to slaughter in the Gariki abattoir.

He disclosed that “Ali came to Gariki abattoir
where Ifeanyi worked as attendant to slaughter his
cow, following the closure of New Artisan Market
by the state government early this week.

“When Ali finished slaughtering his cow, he gave
Ifeanyi N400 instead of the N500 fee for
slaughtering a cow in the abattoir.

“Ifeanyi asked him to give him the remaining N100
but the Fulani man remained adamant, insisting
that he would not pay any other money.

“The misunderstanding degenerated to a fight
between the two.”

It was gathered that Ali quickly pulled out a dagger
and stabbed Ifeanyi severally on the stomach.
Ifeanyi slumped on the ground and died on the
spot.

“When he realized what he had done, he (Ali)
attempted to escape from the market but some
outraged Igbo traders grabbed him and killed him
in turn.

“The angry Igbo traders mobilized and burnt down
the mosque inside Gariki market.”

The Spokesman for Enugu State Police Command,
SP Ebere Amaraizu, who had earlier confirmed the
incident through a text message to our
correspondent, said the command deployed anti-
riot policemen to Gariki market immediately to
stop the situation from escalating.

He stated that: “Two persons were confirmed dead
during a clash between an Easterner and a
Northerner over an alleged misunderstanding that
arose between them in the evening at Gariki
Awkunanaw Market.

“Security has been beefed up in the area by Enugu
State Commissioner of Police, Douglas Agbonleni,
to avoid escalation and breakdown of law and
order, just as a full scale investigation has
commenced into the incident.”

How would you just stab someone! Some people are animals sha.

These Fulanis have been misbehaving ever since their brother became president. Enugu youths should teach them the lesson of their lives. They can never forget Mile 12 I'm a hurry

Forgive me I don't believe this story... I think due to the hatred amogst tribes, people cook up things just for people to read and continue the cycle of hatred.... The story is just too cheesy for my liking... I know people will insult me and probably my generation but I think people should confirm their stories before starting the online war I am not saying it did not happen, let us make sure it did before the two parties start their online war..... Picshure or adonbilivit. Please who has that meme

please somebody in enugu should explain to me,a policeman was killed at the Fulani market prompting it's closure only for a Fulani man to take his cow to the igbo abbatoir and ended killing an igbo man over #100?

Fulani can kill people in our villages and go scot free, this is not mile 12 where you can slaughter people like cows. Don't try that rubbish in our cities.
