Attacks not by Boko Haram, Fulani

Anambra State Governor, Chief Willie Obiano, has visited St Philips Catholic Church, Ozu­bulu to condole with families of those who were shot dead by gun­men in the early hours of yesterday.

The governor, who went to Ozubulu in company of the state Commissioner of Po­lice and other security chiefs in the state al­layed the fears of the people that gathered in the church that the morning attack was neither Boko Ha­ram attack nor Fulani herdsmen onslaught.

He said it was a mat­ter of business misun­derstanding between two sons of the area who are not resident in the country. He, however, said that the security organisations are on top of the situ­ation and that people should go about their lawful businesses with­out further fear.

Obiano also visited the injured who are still receiving treatment at NAUTH in Nnewi, where he prayed for their quick recovery.

The senator rep­resenting Anambra South in the National Assembly, Senator Andy Ubah, has also paid a sympathy visit to the Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital to sympathise the injured.

As at the time of fil­ing this report, the hos­pital has become like a tourist centre as people still troop in to behold those that were lucky to escape the bullets of the gunmen who took the church by storm.
