Uwheru Kingdom, in Ughelli North Local Government Area of Delta State, which was recently attacked by suspected herdsmen, killing no fewer than ten persons, has banned the sale and consumption of cow meat in the community.
The ban was announced over the weekend at a meeting attended by prominent sons and daughters of Uwheru Kingdom, including the Delta State Commissioner for Higher Education, Professor Patrick Muoboghare.
The decision takes immediate effect.
A source said, “By this ban, no one can bring cow meat to any of the communities that make up Uwheru Kingdom for any function, be it burial or any other celebration.
You don’t expect us to be eating cow meat when our people are being killed and can’t go to farm”.
