Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, on Monday raised fresh concerns of possible herdsmen attacks in the state.

The governor dropped this hint when he led the senior pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Paul Enenche, and his wife, Becky, to the cemetery of the 73 victims of the New Year Fulani herdsmen attacks.

The governor hinged his alarm on the influx of over one million cattle into the state despite the launch of Ayem Akpatuma military exercise last Tuesday.

Governor Ortom, who decried the influx of herdsmen into the state, appealed to the military to flush out the invaders so that the over 160,000 displaced persons who had been in eight camps could return to their homes.

Ortom further said that more than 60 persons, including three people killed last week in Guma Local Government Area of the state, have been killed since the mass burial of the 73 persons initially killed by herdsmen in the New Year attacks.

“We appreciate president Buhari for the deployment of soldiers to the state to keep the peace, but our concern is the influx of over one million cows into the state despite the presence of the military.”

Conducting funeral service at the cemetery, Enenche anointed the land to signify the breaking of the yoke, declaring that the burial would also connote the interment of security failure, impunity, Jihadist agenda and all forms of evils.

He also prayed for God’s judgment against the killers and their sponsors throughout the country and charged the earth to rise up against them.

The influx of soldiers to Benue was actually to protect those cattle and not to protect lives in Benue.

When will this Ortom of a man read the handwriting on the wall?

1. Military was brought in the moment he asked the people to defend themselves after the IGP and the defence minister took sides with the herdsmen.

2. They are there to checkmate activities of any local militias that may spring up to heed that call.

3. They have produced and are distributing fliers asking people to accommodate themselves rather than effect the arrest of the aggressors.

4. The president have refused to visit Benue, rather asking them to accommodate their fellow citizens (even though the fellow citizens are murdering women and children in their sleep).


So you can 'wail' all you want, but they will not do anything. They are there to prevent reprisals (You guys defending yourselves as you had urged your people).

Document all your evidence and efforts which the government has either ignored or turned a blind eye to and head to the U.N., ECOWAS court, or ICC. If you don't fight dirty in a legal way, these guys will not back off.

Why is Ortom crying? Did he really expect the Northern based Nigerian Army to go after Fulani herdsmen? Of course they wont do that, its their people

But they will have no problem shooting unarmed IPOB because it is not their people.

Ortom should wake up, "one Nigeria" is a maxim only fools believe in

Buhari's second term, is a blessing in disguise.

In the end, Buhari and not IPOB will end One Nigeria.

I never said that Igbos should forfeit Biafra.
I only said that the approach should be rebranded.

The problem with this line of reasoning is that your people are the most vulnerable to their reprisal attack. Come on, I mean who has more to lose when a silent war breaks out between Fulani and Igbo?
