However, Delta State Police Commissioner, Zanna Ibrahim, who confirmed
the incident told Vanguard that there was no injury, but the Area
Commander, who led the team and one other person were 'exhausted'
It was gathered that the police team, including men of the Dragon, Quik
Response Squad and Ughelli Area Command patrol team, had stormed Orhrbo
community and surroundings in Ughelli North Local Government Area
following reports of rape and attacks on villagers by Fulani herdsmen
taking shelter in the bush. The herdsmen were said to have opened fire
on sighting the police.
Although the police denied report of death or injury, Ehimekluemhen
Ehizoje Joseph said he lost his elder brother, Johnson Ehiakhamen in the
attack. His post below:
