Mark was in company of the former minister of Interior, Comrade Abba Moro, member House of Representatives Ohimini/Otukpo, Honourable Ezekiel Adaji, security aides, newsmen and party supporters.
They were, however, unhurt as a rapid response from security men on the convoy warded off the attack in Akwu community. The incident reportedly caused a huge commotion as the herdsmen were seen taking off with their herds while members of the convoy disembarked and headed in the other direction before the intervention.
However, Senator Mark went through the eight communities affected including Aila, Akwu, Okokolo, Adagbo, Akwu, Ogboju and Odugbeho, which are completely destroyed by Fulani herdsmen.
Addressing the people, Mark asked them to go about their businesses peacefully, adding that the perpetrators of the act would be brought to book.
