President Bola Tinubu met Governor Sheriff Oborevwori on Tuesday over the recent killing of some officers and soldiers of the Nigerian Army in Delta State.
Allub Times reports that Governor Oborevwori was at the State House, Abuja to brief the President on the developments.
After his meeting with the President, the governor told journalists that the situation had been brought under control and that the hoodlums who killed 16 soldiers in Okuoma community in Ughelli Southern Council Area of the State last week would be brought to justice.
Oborevwori added that plans have been implemented to prevent such attacks from happening again.
However, he refused to confirm the report of alleged military retaliatory attacks and the number of casualties, saying that he was not allowed to say certain things publicly for security reasons.
The Delta State governor added that he met security chiefs in Bomadi on Monday but was unable to meet the affected community as the site of the incident was completely deserted.
