Ombatse Militiamen Attack Herdsmen Again by apala911: 1:11pm On May 22, 2013 |
Two Fulani herdsmen were yesterday evening feared killed by suspected Ombatse militiamen in Wadugo community of Lafia North Development area bringing the total number killed in such sporadic attacks on herdsmen to eleven in less than a month across the state. The state secretary of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association, Mallam Husseini Mohammed, who disclosed this to media men in Lafia, said the herdsmen were on their way to Bauchi when they were ambushed by the militiamen who opened fire on them killing one on the spot while the other died shortly on the way to the hospital. As at the time of filing this report, the whereabouts of the third person is yet to be ascertained. Mallam Mohammed said, “our Fulanimen were on the cattle route and did not veer into anybody’s farm but to their amazement they were attacked and the over one thousand cattle they were moving with were dispersed and are still in the bush in different locations”. He added that this repeated act of provocation is unwarranted especially at a time when the leadership of the Fulani and Eggon communities have struck a truce to lay down their arms and embrace peace saying, “this is a great violation of our peace accord”. One of the herdsmen who survived the attack, Mohammed Abubakar, told our reporter that the militiamen whisked away one of them but are not sure what would have become of him. The local head of the community, Abubakar Azumgbu, reported hearing gunshots at about 6pm Monday evening but could not say if the herdsmen were the target. When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Michael Ada, confirmed the incident but said the identity of the attackers has not yet been established as investigation is still ongoing. http://leadership.ng/news/220513/again-ombatse-militiamen-attack-herdsmen |

I reckon we'd not be hearing of Fulani herdsmen raids in and around the ombatse neighbourhood like happens in Kogi, Benue and Plateau states; you could say they've met their bloodthirsty match in those ombatse boys! Even the Police have found out the hard way that these guys don't let their guard down even for a second, so cowardly raids in the dead of the night are out of the question! 11 Likes |

Can Fulanis stop grazing on people's farmlands? This is 2013. For how long would they remain nomads? Nigerians do not realize that this is potentially another BH matter! Powerful elements in Nigeria are rallying behind the Fulanis and that is giving them the guts to continue to graze around, even on other people's farms. Why make money destroying other people's means of livelihood? There must be a solution. This group would not have been if farmlands were not grazed. I dont want to take sides but there should be a solution for this grazing. The Fulanis need to buy land and keep ranches, or FG should buy for them. I also will not accept if I am a farmer and all my crop is destroyed by travelling nomads. Not in 2013, please! 38 Likes |

Very good! This is what they were created for initially before the same policemen who failed to protect those communities decided to go and bite more than they could chew. If all communities constantly attacked by the Fulanis form militia groups like Ombatse, they'd be better for it. Fulani attack you, police no go come. You attack Fulani then 107 Mopol and 10 SSS guys go show to come arrest you. Nonsense! 27 Likes |

See this thread is full of people supporting and inciting violence. However, you see them pretending to be lovers of peace when people they consider to be "of their kind" get killed. #Hypocrisy All acts of violence should be curbed and decisively dealt with. Unfortunately, the GEJ I know is not very proactive. 9 Likes |

Omabatse no send no body.if the fulani start any thing, the police killings will look easy on the eye compared to what the fine boys will do to those herdsmen. This should bring a stop in some way to the "Fulani Scourge" ravaging Nigeria especially the Middle-belt. 6 Likes |
