The Anambra State governor, Charles Soludo, has said Fulani terrorists were not responsible for the maiming and killing Anambra residents, adding that the recent attacks in the state “is 100 per cent Igbos on Igbos.”

Recall globalvoice earlier reported that some gunmen attacked the convoy of Senator Ifeanyi Ubah in Enugwu-Ukwu community in the Njikoka Local Government Area of the state.

It was learnt that some of his aides and police escorts were killed while some were injured during the attack.

A source, however, told globalvoice that no fewer than five policemen were killed during the attack.

Soludo described the claim that Fulani terrorists, particularly from the north, invaded the state and may be responsible for terrorists’ attack in the state in recent times as untrue.

“Let me be clear about it: 100 per cent of the people we have caught are Igbos,” Soludo declared in a Channels TV interview on Sunday night. “It is hoax that somebody is invading from somewhere. It is 100 per cent Igbos on Igbos. That is the fact.”

According to the governor, Igbos from other South-East states are infiltrating Anambra to wreak havoc.

“Anambra is like a cell. We receive a proportionate share of the influx of people from other South-East states and other parts of Nigeria in the South-East,” Soludo explained. “In fact, the first set of people we caught were 100 per cent Igbos from other South-East states and none from Anambra.”

The governor also mentioned that his administration would treat the Igbo bandits as criminals.

“We are dealing with them. For us, there is no distinction whether they are from Anambra or not from Anambra,” he stressed. “Anybody in a camp, anybody in a bush with a gun, we treat as a criminal.”
