A group under the auspices of the Ijaw People’s Development Initiative, IPDI has warned Niger Delta Communities not to allow killer herdsmen into their communities.

This came on the heels of the Monday killing of a father and son in their farmland by suspected herdsmen in the Toru-Angiama community in the Patani Local Government Area of Delta state.

The group’s national president Ambassador Ozobo Austin in a statement said accepting killer herdsmen into communities was like inviting death into one’s house.

He also said every community in Ijaw and Niger Delta should set up community guards to check the excesses of Fulani killer herdsmen.

IPDI further narrated that Ijaw people who are known warriors should not be allowed to be intimidated and killed by primitive herdsmen in their communities.

The group insisted that justice must be done for the deceased victims of the Toru-Angiama community in the Patani Local Government Area of Delta state.

Ozobo maintained that Toru-Angiama and Patani people should not sit and wait for security operatives to make the magic, adding that they should help themselves by hunting for the killers of their brothers.
