The killings began in the days of Jonathan who served from 2010 to 2015. How many DPOs did he query? How many arrests did he authorise? What effort did he make to stop the killings?

He was busy drowning himself in gin and sapele water to know abi? Or was he too focused on the looting spree he and his goons were on?
This I an example of the gods borrowing your mouth. Ignorant people forget this stuff started under JEG.

He deployed soldiers to kill any Fulani found in any Benue village.

Did he? He deployed soldiers to kill ANY Fulani found in Any venue village right? Be they innocent? Be they peaceful dwellers for years? No wonder he was regarded as ineffectual and a buffoon.

A country drenched in the blood of the innocent, and you expect God to bless such a country. This country is doomed forever because all this innocent souls murdered will speak against this shithole. God damn Nigeria to hell.

#NnamdiKanu Nnamdi Kanu 6th Feb. 2014

“As they campaign vigorously for elections, you would think, they are coming to grow the economy, enthrone justice, breed unity and tolerance, love for one another.
No, they are coming to elevate Hausa-Fulani supremacy, to reposition the security agencies by sacking all competent hands and replace them with their kinsmen to drive their ethnic domination of the Biafrans, the Fulani herdsmen will be armed and encouraged to slaughter us with impunity, and their masters will protect them.
They are coming to ensure that my people are enslaved forever. Those who do not, believe me, will soon see it happen before their eyes.”

-Nnamdi Kanu 6th Feb. 2014
You are quoting this?

On a issue that was so serious and terrible even under Jonathan?

Do you have sense in your family at all?
Re: Benue State Government Reveals Timeline Of Herdsmen Attacks by Konskott(m): 3:04pm On Feb 06, 2018
Benue deserves special federal security attention. The people there deserve pity. From 2014 to 2018, they've been under constant attacks.

Yes

The military killed any Fulani found in any Benue village which was the right thing to do as of then.

Any Fulani? Maybe we should start arresting any Igbo now because we think all of them are kidnappers like Evans...

Do shut up and stop being a hate monger. What do you mean by what are they doing in Benue villages destroyed by their tribesmen? Did they tell you that the peaceful ones are meant to be punished for the things the guilty did? Are you daft?

Is this how humanity now reasons? Maybe the Nigerians all over the world who some of them engage in criminal acts should translate to "what were the innocent doing when their fellow Nigerians in the same place were carrying drugs or trafficking girls or carrying out internet fraud". Maybe their host countries should just go ahead and arrest every single Nigerian be they innocent or not and hang them.

Are you mad? I mean are you mad?

When your tribesmen destroy another village, go and dwell there and see if you won't be accused and killed for invading that village.

please stop mentioning me. Maniacs and I do not mix. So an innocent person now trespasses. I wonder how that sounds to you. Someone who did nothing wrong, killed nobody, fought with nobody is now trespassing because people of his tribe are killing when he was not a part of them.

It's people like you they need to roast your fingers one by one while you are awake so you can have sense.

You are an idiöt in an immeasurable way. So those who are innocent should be killed for being in a location they have peacefully been for years because others killed?

In fact you are uniquely stûpid.
