The House of Representatives has mandated the Inspector General of Police to immediately conduct a thorough investigation into the attack on a community in Enugu State by unknown herdsmen.
At least 20 persons were allegedly killed in Ukpabi Nimbo, an agrarian community in the Uzo-Uwani Local Government Area of Enugu State while property worth millions of Naira were destroyed.
In a motion that enjoyed popular support, the House said the Police Chief must ensure the perpetrators were brought to justice.
The House is also inviting the Director General of the Department of State Services to appear before the House to brief them on the rising cases of unidentified herdsmen causing mayhem in different states of the country.
The sponsor of the motion warned that if drastic measures were not put in place, the incident was likely to reoccur.
