Giving out of grazing lands will make it easier for the revelation of the true identity of the Fulanis nd restrict their interactions with their communities of none cattle rearers.

Since the South does not have free lands to give out in grazing why can't the herdsmen not think of embracing ranching? Why can't they buy lands and ranch their cattle.

like seriously? its good to defend d FG, but do so with deeper points. I know some fulanis are peace loving, but it is true that many are rogue too. there have been incidences of Fulani massacring people down here since I was young. people abandoned farming n hunting in my mum's village cause of incessant attacks, you dare not protest if their cows graze on ur farm lest they unleash terror on u. they v been doing it for long, they only became bold this year.

THE STUPID MINISTER WHO SAID IT IS NOT FULANIS WHO KILL PEOPLE SHOULD READ THIS STATEMENT BY THE FULANI LEADERS HIMSELF. NONSENSE. THAT IS WHY I HAVE BRANDED THIS GOVERNMENT A GOVERNMENT OF THE FULANIS, BY A FULANI, AND FOR THE FULANIS. AND SUPPORTED BY FEARFUL AND SELFISH POLITICIANS LIKE THE SO-CALLED AGRIC MINISTER AND THE NORTH-CENTRAL GOVERNORS WHO SIDED WITH THE FULANIS AND SAID IT WASNT FULANIS KILLING PEOPLE.

READ BELOW, SAID BY THE FULANI CATTLE REARERS THEMSELVES


The Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigerian has said Fulani herdsmen, who have allegedly been involved in serial killings in various communities in the country, kill their hosts in self-defence.

The leader of a delegation of MACBAN to the Defence Headquarters, Senator Dagiri Alkali, said the Fulani moved into new territories in the country because they had been forced out of their territories in the North.

He claimed that the Boko Haram insurgents attacked the Fulani in the North-East and other parts of the country and stole millions of cows from the breeders.

He added that the Fulani were also victims of the activities of cattle rustlers in Katsina, Zamfara, Kebbi, Kaduna, Nasarawa, Plateau, Benue and parts of Kogi states with millions of cows taken away from them.

He wondered why people had not taken a look at the factors that had driven the Fulani to different parts of the country, asking where Nigerians expected the herdsmen to keep the over 20 million cows in the country.

He added, “When the reserves and forest were gazetted and reserved for cattle breeders, this incident was not there; but the increase in population has now wiped out the entire grazing reserves in this country; 400 and something of them all wiped out. And you have a population of about 20 million cows. Where do you keep them? And every one of us likes to eat meat.

“This is a venture that over 20 million people are engaged in. And nobody cares to know what the causes of this problem are. Presently, you know the case of Boko Haram. They attacked and decapitated the population of Fulani in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe and some parts of Taraba.

“The cattle rustlers have displaced the Fulani in Katsina, Zamfara, Kebbi, Kaduna, Nasarawa, Plateau and Benue and in some parts of Kogi. Millions of cattle have been taken from these herdsmen. So when somebody says a Fulani man killed somebody, I wonder why? How? It’s only a poor man that fights.

“But you, as the military people, you know self-defence is an art. In the military, if you are attacked you have to defend yourself. You have been squeezed; you have to find a way to survive.”

He said when the Fulani were killed in the bush, nobody carried it in the media, admitting that it was not enough for anybody to kill innocent persons.

The Defence authorities have warned that the military would go after those behind the killing of innocent citizens and ensure that they were prosecuted in accordance with the directive of the President to deal with the situation.

The Director, Administration, at the Defence Headquarters, Maj. Gen. Fatai Ali, who represented the Chief of Defence Staff, Gen. Gabriel Olonisakin, said the CDS had set up a committee to interact with the stakeholders on the issue.

He warned those involved in violence to stop forthwith as the Federal Government would subject them to the full weight of the law.

According to him, the committee, led by Maj. Gen. Edward Nze, had just arrived in Abuja from Benue for such meetings with stakeholders.

He stated that the military was working hard to ensure that those who perpetrated the gruesome killings were apprehended.

“The recent herdsmen and local community clashes in many parts of Nigeria are sources of serious concern. Many lives have been lost. The President has directed security agencies and indeed the military to handle the situation and ensure that no more lives are lost.

“I want to assure you that the military, in conjunction with other security agencies, is doing everything possible to maintain peace and security in Nigeria in line with the directive of the Commander-in-Chief.

“I want to also assure you that whoever is involved in this killing will be brought to book and tried in line with the law of the land.

“We are calling on all other parties, who are interested in peace, to sheathe their swords and ensure that they do not cause unnecessary casualties or deaths; otherwise, the Federal Government of Nigeria will bring the full weight of the force and law on them.”

#BOYCOTT ALL BEEF PRODUCTS.
FROM TODAY HENCEFORTH, I SHALL NO LONGER EAT BEEF, OR SUYA, OR KPOMO, UNTIL ALL FULANI GOES BACK TO THEIR LAND

YES, BECAUSE I KNOW THEY CAN NEVER LIVE IN PEACE WITH ANYONE UNLESS FORCED TO.

FELLOW NAIRALNDERS, JOIN ME IN THE BOYCOTT. THAT IS OUR PEACFUL MEANS OF PROTEST. SINCE BUHARI AND HIS FULANI DOMINATED MILITARY AND POLICE HAVE REFUSED TO PROTECT US, AND WE CANNOT BUY GUNS TO PROTECT OURSELVES, LET US PROTEST PEACEFULLY, BY BOYCOTTING ALL HERDSMEN PRODUCT.

From today henceforth, i will only eat fish, or chicken, or turkey. When i cant afford them, i will go vegetarian.

IF WE NIGERIANS REFUSE TO EAT THEIR BEEF, THEY WILL BE STARVED OF FUNDS.

#BOYCOTT ALL BEEF AND COW PRODUCTS

To think that poo came from a southerner in the person of Heinekan Lokpobiri is what makes it more annoying!!! so because he got one stupid junior ministerial appointment from a Fulani man means he should sit back and allow the fulanis massacre his people
He has said what he knows although not what u want to hear even though he is a Niger Deltan. Truth is very bitter to the ears of bigots.

your level of reasoning shows that you are notin but a layman. So u'r in support of d NDA dat is destroying pipelines wch is destroying our economy and bringing hardship on U nd I. Even b4 dis post I already knew dat all diz herdsmen killing around is another strategy by boko haram to carry out their operations and I knw a reasonable person wil reason wit me. Herdsmen have being existing for years and they do their things peacefully and I don't tink there's somtin they wil gain by killing people around. Grow up Mr man and stop hating on your fellow country man... Tribalism won't take us anywie. Thank you

I thought the FG said boko haram has been technically defeated.
What is this one saying? If u are chasing a goat in order to get hold of it and fortunately, it ran into a single entry/exit enclosure, have u caught the goat? The answer is no, but technically you have caught it. This is what is meant by 'technical defeat'.

since they are not Nigerians, then the government and the north should have no problem in communities resulting to self defence ,even if it means laying siege for them,communities should hence forth deal gruesomely with is so called foreign herdsmen, blood for blood,no mercy, I hope the government wouldn't also have an issue with dealing with that too?

Can't use your brain? If they want it, let them ask for it! Haven't they got representatives?

They will establish grazing reserves and nothing will happen. One thing you fail to forget that once these Bakkasi men go on rampage, they will kill themselves, they will rape their women, turn their kids to orphans, destroy the few social amenities they have and the FG would also order the soldiers to wipe them out. Their loss would be greater than the Fulanis tongue grin

Continue to threaten violence, at the end of the day you will be the one to suffer am.

By the way, please educate yourself. There is no good in sounding like an id.iot. The FG can PURCHASE local lands for grazing. It is no different from subsidies or aids the government give farmers. These Fulanis are the reason you have meat and ponmo to eat in the East, West and South. It does not make any sense to start act like a mor.on because of some baseless perception.

BUNCH OF PARANOID PEOPLE!


it's not any reason. there are so many meat to eat. outside of cattle's.

The Fulanis are overreaching their limits this time, & it gonna backfire.

They want to do to Nigeria what they did to Kwara state

With federal backing of course!
