An indigene of the community, resident in Abuja, who sent a distress message obtained by DAILY POST said “I just received a frightening report that Fulani herdsmen have planned to invade my community, Nze in Udi Local Government Area.
“I therefore call on the Police in Enugu State to rise up to this grave security challenge to avert a repeat of Ukpabi Nimbo.
“My community is deserted, as women, children and the elderly have been moved to Enugu and neighboring communities of Aku, Affa and Egede.
“Am deeply pained by this terrible news and urge all Nigerians to stand with my people in prayers and defence of our land.”

“As I speak to you, every person in my family compound has fled the community; I can’t even reach them”, he lamented.
Another resident of the community told DAIlY POST late Thursday night that “The Fulani man, Shimo, who is terrorizing the whole of Udi North is well known and connected with the ninth mile police station.
