One Sure Way To Fight The Fulani Herdsmen. by Ken4Christ: 2:57am On Jan 16, 2018
The recent development in our Nation occasioned by the senseless killings of the Fulani herdsmen is really disturbing and needs urgent solution.

There has been so much talk about the killings going on and the Islamic agenda but not much is said about how to stop these demons.

There had been call for self defense. But with what are peasant farmers going to defend themselves with? Are they going to use farm cutlasses or sticks against people with sophisticated weapons? This rules self defense our of it except the state has a well armed vigilante groups which is obvious beyond the resources of most states.

One way I think we can stop them is to stop patronizing cows meats. I know it is not going to be easy but sanction is a non violent way to fight and win some wars.

Each time you buy their meet, your are empowering them to get more guns to fight you.

Fish even has more nutritional value than meat. And our monies will come back to our people, not to those killing us.

Besides, they can one day use this meat to poison us and more people will be killed through poison than through guns and swords.

What is your suggestion because every community have been marked out for attack and yours may be text. They disguise as show cobblers, okada riders. They know all our communities very well. And they strike when you least expect it. The security personnel connive will them by turning a blind eye. What do you think about the meat sanction?

Mark my words: the fulanis will start poisoning the cow meat that you buy from them. It's very easy to pour rat poison on cow meat sold in the open market.

It is time for every state to breed their own cattle; that is, if they want to eat cow meat. Otherwise, fulani cattle should be boycotted by all means.

If you continue to eat fulani cow meat you will die because they will poison the meat!

I agree with you on most point but I don't believe they want war really... They only want to be feared and forcefully have their way for personal prosperity and caring less whose horse is gored in the process.... A boycott of cow meat will be a good way to fight back.... But where are the poultry and aquaculture to replace that? A boycott of beef will drive up prices of chicken and fish to astronomical heights if implemented right now so efforrs has to be put in before we can even attempt that.

So anybody who is really angered by this senseless killing and has the means should pls set up poultry and ranches now. Maybe we have to start branding our beef as NIGERIAN RANCHED CATTLE BEEF. I wont mind driving some miles to get that.

With the modus operandi of the Fulani Militias, they can have their ways almost anywhere in Nigeria..... Our security architecture is poo..... Any country that does not have biometric data of ALL its citizens in its database is not serious or ready to provide any meaningful protection or security for its citizenry. What you will get is attack and reactions like we always have


Nigeria left things too late..... Lack of education means Herdsmen does not have common values with the rest of Nigerian. The roam in the wild and experience unimaginable things that has toughen then and remove any spec of human kindness. They live like wild animals for too long despite the civilization going on in the towns and villages.......as pasturalist they just keep roam the bush.


Our lack of vision in Nigeria too has left their occupation so lucrative for generations that we don't have anything to persuade them to leave what they are doing for a 'better' communal or ranching life style. Imagine if with our education and enlightenment, we have set up ranches and made success out of it and drive down the price of cattle or even build a virile export industry around it..... Fulanis would have embrace the improved method of doing things. Boycotting Fulani beef will be a difficult thing cos we rarely agree on anything in Nigeria but imagine a glut in their cattle market.... That can help us to get them to listen to the cry of the civilized populace.

Sadly Nigeria is a forced conjecture and we are not about to agree to forge ahead together..... Leadership is a sham, Buhari kids are citizen of the world, Visa for a common Nigeria youth is a prayer point..... We are not about to build a nation. Not just yet!

You are right in a sense. But what a reasonable Christian led government show do if we are to boycott meet is to subsidize the importation of poultry products. The ways things are going, we need urgent solution. Buhari is a jihadist and the killings are planned. Every community has been marked for attack and they are progressing gradually.
