The Guardian learnt that the incident happened on Sunday morning, which resulted in his death while the brother of the deceased, Andrew was injured and being treated in hospital.

A source in the community, however, disclosed that the situation in the community still remained tense.The state Police Public Relations Officer , Odiko Macdon, who confirmed the incident, described it as “unfortunate” adding that the Commissioner of Police , Andrew Amiengheme, had ordered an investigation into the incident.

But the Fulani Community in Delta State has dissociated itself from the threat letter issued to the state government to withdraw its supports for anti-open cattle grazing, saying the purported threat was uncalled for and should be disregard entirely.
