Cross River State Governor, Professor Ben Ayade, has condemned the invasion of suspected herdsmen which left one person dead in a community in the state.
He alleged that the herdsmen came to his state to perpetuate violence after they left Benue State as a result of the enforcement of the Open Grazing Law by the state government.
According to the governor, intelligence information revealed that the suspects invaded a community in Yala Local Government Area of the state and following a little argument, a skirmish ensued leading to the death of one person and others injured.
Addressing a press conference after a closed-door security meeting which held on Monday in Calabar, he called on the Federal Government to intervene in the matter to prevent more attacks on the community bordering Benue State.
