The Governor of Edo State, Monday Okpebholo, arrived at the Kano State Government House on Monday to condole with the government and families of the 16 victims killed in Uromi, Edo State, last week.

His visit comes amid growing outrage in northern Nigeria over what many see as a targeted attack on traders from the region.

The victims, mostly from Kano and other northern states, were reportedly ambushed and killed in Uromi, a town in Edo’s Esan North-East Local Government Area.

The killings have sparked anger in northern Nigeria, with protests erupting in Kano, Katsina, and parts of Kaduna as citizens demand justice and better security for northerners residing in the South.

In Kano, youth groups and community leaders have accused the Edo State government of not doing enough to prevent such attacks, calling for swift action to apprehend the perpetrators.

During his visit, Governor Monday Okpebholo assured the Kano State government that his istration was working with security agencies to investigate the killings and bring those responsible to justice.

He also expressed sympathy for the bereaved families, emphasizing that violence against any ethnic or religious group must not be tolerated.

His visit comes as pressure mounts on both state and federal authorities to address growing concerns over ethnic tensions and insecurity across the country.

Really? I pity for the level of foolishness in the head of all these Southern politicians. How many governors from the North ever condemned the frequent and incessant killings by these Fulani terrorists let alone coming to console with the family of their victims? I'm ashamed of the political slavery and servitude style of these asslicking stooges who call themselves governors of the South.

When will northern governors also come to the south to visit villages where herdsmen have sacked

Puppets!! See the weakling and asslicker people have as governor.
No wonder they can't do anything to stop killings by herdsmen

This looks like fake news.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


Imagine if Igbo hunters were found with den guns and killed in Ogun State.


Stop deceiving yourself, there is no way the Igbos will love Nigeria no matter all the propaganda against them.

This governor is playing with fire... The governor obviously don't understand how Fulani operates

Those hunters are scouting team... The study the forest, establish routes then the armed groups come in

You don't show weakness to fulanis...
Igbos tried to reason with them for over 40 years... Till 2006 ... If what happened in Edo happened in the 1990s ... 400 igbos would have been dead... But now them no born them we'll

No body have shown weakness to Fulani or tries to reason with them successfully in history

Very good gesture from my state Governor

He dey ment...



Which northerner dey visit for herdsmen crisis....

Interesting times ahead

Cloud chaser! What the Hausas/fulanis are doing in middle belt and some Southern States, how many of the Northern Governor has visited the victims families?

This man is a huge and monumental DISAPPOINTMENT!

What manner of ass-licking is this?!!

How many emirs, governors, and Northern leaders visited Enugu, Benue, and Edo states when hundreds were slaughtered by Northern herdsmen?!!


Why do we in the South constantly have to pander to the emotions of the North?!!

Why ffs?!!

Any form of jungle justice is absolutely wrong including the ones done in the North. it is a barbaric and archaic practice

How many times have the north apologize to the south for herdsmen killings? The way southern governors fear this fulani people,something is definitely wrong somewhere

Southern leaders should learn.

Okkk, but pls how many northern governors do visit to console the victims of fulani herdsmen?

Why is Edo governor behaving like rat set on fire.

The only reason Nigerian Army has not moved in is because APC is in Edo state and this didn't happen in Eastern Nigeria

We know what the army did in Delta state.

Wow!! This is a wise leader

How many other victims have they visited? Has Kano Gov visited Benue after all these killings?

Kpai kpai kpaiama

MAD boy.

Have the Almajari governors up North been visiting the South when their useless people kill Southerners?

But you didn't go to visit those they killed in ovia a month ago. What a Hippocratic insecurity governor

Dem don go beg. Useless politicians.

How many governors in the north have come to south to commensurate with them when Fulani kills in south.

South wld always remain slaves to the north.

Illiterate!

Good for the aesthetics.

But it is not needed coz no Northern governor do tour to the South when Fulani herdsmen ravage the farm.

You don't even know the difference between Hausa and Fulani. Hausas are not the ones killing people, Bandits and heardsmen mostly Fulanis are the ones killing even hausas all over the place, more hausas have been killed than southerners. All those bandits attack in zamfara, Sokoto, kastina, etc na southerners dem dey kill? It's a sad situation but we must tackle the real culprits.

Slave mentality. Can any Northern Governor's do this to Southerners killed in the North.
Did any Northern Governor's visit Deborah's parents to console with them?
