Fulani herdsmen have finally agreed with the Olomu Traditional Council in Ughelli South Local Government Area of Delta State, to vacate the kingdom for an interim period of two weeks.
The herdsmen said they would leave the town beginning from June 25, to July 9 to enable the kingdom work out modalities for their re-entrance in order to avoid further clashes.
The herdsmen were represented by Alhaji Haruna, Alhaji Immam Young-Okotie, Alhaji Garba, Alhaji Usman Suleiman and Alhaji Mohammed Aliyu.
The Olomu Traditional Council led by HRM, Ovie R. Ogbon-Ogoni Oghoro I, and his chiefs were at the well attended meeting.
The meeting became imperative following the alleged criminal activities by the Fulani herdsmen who allegedly destroy farm crops, rape Olomu women as well as intimidate farm owners from doing their legitimate farming business in their own farms. Culled from Daily Post
