His post read;
There won't be mass burial of victims of the Fulani herdsmen attacks in Okpokwu tomorrow. A church service followed by burial of the victims will take place on Thursday next week in Okpokwu.
Pls spare a moment tonight and pray for the innocent souls.
Lasgidi Online could not ascertain the real reason for the cancellation of the mass burial but there are online reports that it may be cancelled because of the president's visit to the state next week Monday.
