Rivers state police command has debunked the viral video circulating on social media, claiming Fulani Herdsmen attacked a community and was repelled by Ijaw youths.
The command in a statement by the spokesperson SP Grace Iringe-koko said the claims are false, misleading, and designed to incite panic among the public.
The command also emphasizes that there have been no incidents or reports of Fulani Herdsmen attacks in any part of Rivers state.
According to the police, the report is a fabricated narrative and a deliberate attempt by mischief makers to undermine the prevailing peace and stability in the state.
The Rivers state police commissioner CP Olugbenga Adepoju urged members of the public to disregard what he described as misinformation and exercise restraint in sharing unverified content that could spark unnecessary tension or damage the state reputation.
