Nwodibo Ekechukwu, the police Commissioner in Enugu State, has been removed from his post yesterday following a series of clashes between Enugu State residents and Fulani herdsman. According to our source, official statements show that Mr. Ekechukwu is being replaced by CP Emmanuel Ojukwu.
Enugu State has experienced significant bloodshed from attacks by Fulani herdsman and communal violence, including one attack in April leaving at least 48 people dead with houses and property burned to the ground.
The violence has sparked demonstrations across Nigeria and in cities across the world. Many protesters are calling for President Buhari to take action against the suspected Fulani herdsman and to protect the lives of Nigerian civilians.
