What the Acting President Said Over The Warring Communities In Yala L.G.A Of Cross River State.

A statement by the Acting President’s Spokesman, Mr Laolu Akande, stated that acting President Prof. Yemi Osinbajo condemned the recent communal conflict in the area, and appealed to warring communities to embrace peace to enable government to find lasting solution to the crisis.
The acting President further ordered security agencies to take urgent steps to avert further breakdown of law and order as well as also directing the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) to assist the state government toward sending relief materials to affected communities.
This was not the first time both communities clashed over issues of land ownership. The June 27 and June 29 clash appeared to be the most devastating, as it left the community deserted. Wanikade and Wanihem communities both share boundaries with Benue State. Persons displaced by the conflict were currently being camped at Efiola-Emokpe community in Oju Local Government Area of Benue State, were shelter and there needs are provided by the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA).
