Some of our fellow students have been made fatherless, motherless and even some are now orphans because of Fulani herdsmen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis killing of our state owned university staff, a father of 14, has made it mandatory for us to cry out aloud to the Delta State and the Federal Governments to take decisive and proactive action in bringing this genocide to an end and its perpetrators to book.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is in the interest of peace that we call on the Delta State and Federal Governments to urgently intervene by putting a final end to the ongoing genocide by any means, take up the responsibility of Mr. Idama by ensuring that his family are well taken care of and ensure that all his children complete their academic studies to their desired level, likewise other victims too and direct all security agencies to be more proactive and be seen to be committed without bias at various strategic locations, in order to restore confidence in the minds of the victims.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<\/p>\n<p><a> Vanguard <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ABRAKA \u2013 STUDENTS under the aegis of National Association of Delta State Students, NADESSTU, Wednesday said &hellip; <a title=\"Students to occupy Delta Govt.
