A top civil servant in Delta State, Mr. Bernard Chigwe, was allegedly killed by Fulani herdsmen yesterday.
The late Chigwe was Head, Personnel Management, Ijoko North Local Government Area (LGA).
The Nation gathered that the late Chigwe found some herdsmen grazing their cattle on his farm and reported to the Divisional Police Station, Kwale, where some policemen followed him to his farm.
Sources said the herdsmen took to their heels when they saw the policemen and Chigwe was shot. Chigwe died before he could get medical attention. Sources said he might have been shot by one of the herdsmen.
Delta Police spokesman Charles Muka confirmed the incident.
He said: “For now, we cannot confidently say whether the HPM was killed by the Fulani cattle rearers because investigations have not been completed
