Amid tears and sorrow from families and well wishers, some victims of the bloodbath perpetrated by Fulani herdsmen in Nimbo community have been today, laid to eternal rest.
Few months ago, it was widely reported online and social media that there was a bloodbath in Nimbo community in Uzo- Uwani Local Government Area of Enugu State, when about 40 persons were reportedly killed by some suspected Fulani herdsmen.
The incident took place after stories filtered out that no fewer than 500 heavily-armed Fulani herdsmen sneaked into the community preparatory to launch an attack.
About seven villages in Nimbo (Nimbo Ngwoko, Ugwuijoro, Ekwuru, Ebor, Enugu Nimbo, Umuome and Ugwuachara) were among the areas attacked.
Ten residential houses and a church, Christ Holy Church International, aka Odozi Obodo, were also said to have been burnt by the herdsmen just as vehicles and motorcycles were destroed and domestic animals killed.
In a photo released on twitter by SaharaReporters, some of the victims of the massacre have been laid to rest amid tears and sorrow from families and well wishers.
