"I do not know whether it would have been better to allow them to take the law into their hands; so government should take appropriate actions to end the menace," he said. Lamenting the pain and anguish brought upon the community by the attackers, President General of the Egede Town Union, Clement Amuji, said: "The attack by these herdsmen has become a menace to our people. We have been complaining to the government; we have written several letters to Udi Local Government Council, and the District Police Officer (DPO), 9th-Mile. This has been happening; they have been destroying our crops and raping our women."
