It was reported earlier that about 20 were killed in Ukpabi Nimbo, Uzo-Uwani local government area of Enugu state, after armed cattle herdsmen, reportedly more than a hundred, swooped on the community in the early hours of Monday.
It was learnt that the herdsmen had previously fallen out with the villagers over their grazing activities in the community. The villagers alleged that most of the herdsmen that were involved in the Monday's attack were imported from Nasarawa state by other Fulani herdsmen who were already operating in Enugu.
