Herdsmen: We’ll Be Forced To Resort To Self-help, Group Warns by 240naija(m): 11:47am On Apr 30, 2016 |
An Igbo socio-cultural group, Izumunna Cultural Association, has said that the people of South-East may be forced to defend themselves against incessant attacks by Fulani herdsmen should the Federal Government fail to prevent recurrence. The group said that the rampant Fulani herdsmen attacks and killings in the South-East were not accidental, but part of the grand design to acquire lands in the region. The group said in a statement signed on Friday in Jos by its President, Dr. Ugo Ihekuna and Secretary, Chief Elvis Chukwu, that it was worried by the apparent poor response of security agencies to the atrocities and the near silence exhibited by the Federal Government. The association, however, asked the people of the South-East to stop the habit of using Hausa/Fulani as guards in their homes, saying “it has been established that these guards often guide the mercenaries when they want to strike.” In the statement entitled, “Herdsmen invasion of South-East: Call for Action,” the group said it was dismayed by the “level of brigandage and carnage being unleashed on the people of South-East by Fulani herdsmen.” It asked the Federal Government to prevent a situation where Ndigbo would resort to self help in order to protect themselves. The group said, “These actions, coming at a time the National Assembly has begun deliberations on the National Grazing Reserves Commission, is apparently one of the grand designs to alienate and appropriate lands in the South-East. “The strategy is to use Fulani herdsmen to coerce local farmers to relinquish part of their farmland for grazing of their livestock as panacea for peace. “The scenario, as being played out in the legislature, is to use the instrument of constitutional amendment to carve out large parts of land in the Middle Belt and Southern Nigeria and hand them over to Fulani herdsmen. “With time, the Fulani will demand the establishment of their chiefdom as they are doing in Kachia in Kaduna State where grazing reserve was carved out for them by the government of Northern Nigeria in the early 1960s.” http://www.levitoday.com/2016/04/herdsmen-well-be-forced-to-resort-to.html |

nwaanambra1:For your info,the part of benue where I came from have never been under attack by any homosephiens,remember what caused the invasion of zaki biam by the Nigerian army? Where I came from we do not have fulanis or hausas selling goro or cutting nails,where I came from we have only one religion and that is christianity(even though I don't hate islam). No fulani man will dare enter there in the name of grazing,take note of that. NOTE::::The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Also,I have never widraw my support for pmb till 2023. |
