The IGP said it was a communal clash
The question here is:

So perhaps it was not the whipping boy, the abominable snowman
christined “Fulani herdsmen” but a neighboring hostile community.

Jokers!!! He is also a FULANI man..
Cos 2019 is around the corner...

my fellow countrymen, you know how things are handled here, dont worry go about your normal business, the perpetrators will be brought to book: who don die,don die, dats how 9ja roll

May who eva said it was communal clash neva no peace...togeda wif his family..nonsense

Medicine after death. I do not trust these people. That has been their usual response each time people are killed yet the killings never stops.

Nigeria is the only country where our leaders talk before thinking....bunch of jesters....communal clash indeed...this one dey always think through is stomach.....What am i even sayin?? The force is not independent to even do their job....they must always kiss the ass of the executive.... State policing they said NO......Restructuring NO.....we are in a zoo no doubt

I am not satisfied. This government has failed in curtailing the excesses of the fulani herdsmen just because they are the president tribesmen. Nepotism at its highest [b][/b]
