Okozie Okereofor, Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of the Vunokilang Police Station in Girei Local Government Area (LGA) of Adamawa State, was on Sunday morning killed by Fulani herdsmen. The DPO was among the 30 believed to be killed by the alleged attack on several villages in Girei LGA.
It was revealed that the attacks may have been in revenge over a feud between the local farmers and herdsmen. Officer Okereofor was allegedly ambushed by the herdsmen as he was leading policy officers into the villages under attack by the herdsmen.
The spokesperson of the Adamawa State Police Command, Othman Abubakar, confirmed the death of DPO Okereofor.
