Obiano Warns Herdsmen Against Carrying Weapons In Anambra by edunwablog: 5:38am On Jan 09, 2018
Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State has warned cattle herders in the state to desist from carrying dangerous weapons.
Obiano said he would not hesitate to invoke the full weight of the law on any cattle herder found carrying dangerous weapons.

The governor who addressed indigenes of the state during a reception organised in his country home, shortly after taking the chieftaincy title of Ebubedike Aguleri, said on no account should a herdsman be found wielding an AK-47 rifle or any such weapon.


Obiano assured the state that he was not unaware of the havoc being caused by herdsmen in other states, saying he was working to ensure that such would not be witnessed in Anambra State.
He stated that his government has put in place measures that would guarantee peaceful and harmonious coexistence between herdsmen and host communities.

“Part of the measures taken to address the menace was sensitising both the host communities and the Fulani herdsmen of the existing agreement that any party that destroys either the lives or property of the other will pay and also be prosecuted,” the governor added.

Obiano described the people of the state as peace-loving people who welcome visitors who are seeking wealth opportunities in the state, but warned that those who may want to take advantage of the people’s hospitality would be decisively dealt with.

He reassured farmers in remote communities of his administration commitment to put an end to the cattle invasion on their farmlands.

Obiano should aswell pass the antigrazing law.. when the fulani murderers see more states adopting the law in support of benue, they would know its between them and Nigeria.

But the problem is when you finish supporting them and eventually win the fight, they forget the struggles and support one dullard either to rule them or rule us.

All South eastern and some Niger delta South south states should invoke the anti grazing law. And we should also provide vigilantes with weapons.

This are dangerous times.
We need to prepare for any attack from this barbaric beasts. We can't let what happened to benue happen in our land.

Fulani always have weapons with them.
They are savage beasts and they have the backing of fg.


Fulani herdsmen death toll is surpassing that of boko haram.

Enough is enough!

The govs all have presidential aspirations and wont want to do anything that would be regarded as Anti north. Because they hope to get their block votes from north.

Same reason GEJ was dancing around boko haram and fulani killings.

We are held to ransom in this country by the north. How I wish the south can seek an independent South Nigeria Republic (with capital in Lagos)...like south korea and north korea..or south sudan and sudan. Anything to leave hausa-fulani

why is it OK for an igbo man to go up North and should be seen as A Nigerian living in Nigeria and a fulani man living down east should be seen as a visitor, visiting Nigeria it's not as if he/she was giving a visiting visa or papers. But Statements like this coming from a sitting governor is why the "dividing agitation" will continue. the fulani in Anambra state so far have been peaceful (Thank God) it won't be fair to classify all fulani as Herdsmen. we have some doing other businesses in onitcha, Ekwulobia, Nnewi and Awka. So Why the "Our visitors" statement. Are other part of Nigeria not allowed to live in any part of Nigeria as Nigerian anymore. Cos I didn't get dat memo. We have to Learn as leaders that our words are our true self. If these leaders want division great is they want unity great but they have to "speak the speak".

You better have your plan B and be ready.

Buhari will not come to your aid when the time comes. If he failed to assist his party man (Ortom), is it you from a rival party that he will assist?

Do we need to warn them? Let them try and see the difference between garri and semovita. Let them just try the East again. That of Enugu was overlooked.

Of course, they won't try it.

The Fulani people I stayed with during my service year were peace loving people, the current Fulani herdsmen are foreigners.

Lai Mohammed said deadly Fulani herdsmen were foreigners , people never believed him even some made fun of him but when one of their own in the name of Okupe confirmed it that the deadly Fulani's were foreigners, they never went against the okupe of a person.

Is this not another hypocrisy blinded by hate?

Cattle rearers, sellers, breeders, caretakers, and all, are not needed in Anambra. If I catch them, I, wuld first eat their me*t before that of their cattle.

Lol

The minute these fulanis try nonsense in onitsha, they'll have to all run out because it won't be something light.

Ask the hausas in oyigbo and aba. It will be more than the IPOB threat.

I hope it doesn't get to that though.
