15 Women And Children Dead As Herdsmen And Youths Clash In Benue by Xquisite360: 11:50am On Mar 06, 2018
some Herdsmen furtively went on rampage, resulting in matcheting to death of 15 persons mainly women and children, while some houses were set ablaze.

15 Women and children have been confirmed dead by the Benue State Police Command a clash between some herdsmen and irate youths in Okpokwu LGA of Benue state yesterday March 5th.

A statement by the state police command says it received information earlier in the day that some Irate Youths from Omutu had engaged some Herdsmen in a fight, killing some cows, while two (2) Herdsmen were found missing.

A peace meeting was immediately initiated with the Chairman of the LGA and the Head of the Fulani Community in the area, while a Police Search Party went in search of the 2 missing Herdsmen. One of them was found dead.

Unfortunately, as the search and peace meeting were ongoing, some Herdsmen furtively went on rampage, resulting in matcheting to death of 15 persons mainly women and children, while some houses were set ablaze.

Four suspects have already been arrested in connection with the gruesome murder.

In 2000 Buhari asked the late Governor Lam Adesina of Oyo state “why are your Yoruba people killing my Fulani people” when Fulani herdsmen and terrorists suffered a series of heavy reprisal attacks and killings after they had attacked and killed many Yoruba farmers in Oyo state.
In 2001 he told the Nigerian people that “Muslims should only vote for Muslims”.
In 2001 he told the Nigerian people that it was his intention to “spread sharia law ALL over the country”.
In 2002 he told the Nigerian people that “Christians have no business with the matter and should not complain when limbs are being cut off in the name of sharia because those limbs are Muslim limbs and not theirs”.
In 2003 he proclaimed that the Muslims of Nigeria should “all work together and win power at the centre because when the Muslims of the north join hands with our Muslim brothers in the south-west we are more in number than the Christians”.
In 2013 he told the Nigerian people that “an attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the North”.
In 2014 his trusted political associate and a man by the name of Alhaji Lai Mohammmed from Kwara state who played a key role in his 2015 presidential campaign and who was later appointed as his Minister of Information announced to the world that it was “wrong, unjust and unconstitutional to proscribe Boko Haram and to describe them as a terrorist organisation”.
In 2016 his official spokesman at the Presidency, Mr. Femi Adesina, told the Nigerian people that Buhari would not comment on the cold-blooded butchering and murder of no less than 808 Christians in Southern Kaduna on Christmas day and Christmas eve by Fulani terrorists because the Presidency “regarded the matter as a state-affair”.
In January 2018 Buhari told Governor Samuel Ortom and the elders and traditional rulers of Benue state that “the Fulani herdsmen and cattle-rearers are your brothers and you must find a way to accomodate them” after those same terrorist herdsmen had butchered over 1000 innocent people in Agatu occupied their land two years ago and hundreds more all over the state since that time.
And it is the same story all over the Middle Belt and the south where Fulani terrorists and herdsmen slaughter innocent Nigerians in the most gruesome and horrific manner and circumstances and destroy and steal their homes, farms and land without any fear of being brought to justice or being resisted or confronted by any of Buhari’s northern-Muslim-led security agencies and Armed Forces.
So now I ask, which “war against terror” or “war against Boko Haram” or “war against the Fulani terrorists and herdsmen” are we referring to or is Buhari fighting? Can he really be expected to fight himself?

These Fulani guys do these criminal acts with great audacity because of just one reason: They are untouchable.
