Gunmen kill eight traders in Abia market

Abia State Government has confirmed the killing of eight persons by gunmen at new Cattle Market in Omuma-Uzo in Ukwa West Local Government Area of the state on Tuesday.

He said some yet-to- be-identified gunmen attacked traders at the cattle market on February 15, at about 11.35 p.m. “This was followed this morning by the visit of a high-powered team, made up of Chief of Staff to the Governor, Dr Anthony Agbazuere and Commissioner for Trade and Investment, Chief Okiyi Kalu.

“We are shocked and saddened by this mindless and barbaric act of violence that claimed the lives of no fewer than eight innocent citizens of our great country.Mr Chikamnayo said the government will provide support for families of the victims.He said the injured were being given medical attention.

We still remember when Northern Nigerian officers, murdered 185 Igbo officers and the massacre of thirty thousand Igbos and Easterners in pogroms that started in May 1966 and occurred over four months. We never loved one another. Sad. Abia

your hypocrisy stinks, you did not mention the identity of those killed because they are northerners. If its the other way round from the headline alone, we will understand those who were killed and who killed them.

Just say it as it is , they killed Northerners who are trading in cattle simple ! But I hope when we have the return leg in the North no one would shout genocide ?

.. you all are daft. You only see when the northerns get killed.. have you ever posted about biafrans killed during the ohyton dance in Abia state? Have you ever spoken truth about Nigerian System and as it appears... One day we will win. Biafra will rise!!
