In Nigerian official and media circles and even wider, the never-ending mass murder by Fulani herdsmen/militia has regularly been tagged "herdsmen and farmer clashes".  Naijiant.com has long argued that this label muddies the waters and fails to show the clear divide between perpetrators and victims.  This theme was taken up yesterday in the House of Lords during a debate tabled by Lord Alton in which he asked the British government "what assessment they have made of the continuing violence between communities and armed groups in Nigeria".

Lord Alton and other members of the House of Lords also condemned the inaction of the Buhari govt on the crisis.

If Nigeria is a sane country, buhari would have been impeached, or he would've resigned as the president of Nigeria but ... This is Nigeria.

The buhari led federal government once said those killer herdsmen are from Libya, I con dey imagine say drug barons from Mexico, they invade states like California, new Mexico etc they kill people and destroy their(Americans) properties. I just dey imagine how the reaction of Donald Trump go be like

Lol... Nothing dey for Buhari head

This idea of masking terrorist driven one sided ethnic cleansing as farmer herders clash has to be jettisoned as it a deliberate narrative meant to cloak the activities of very deadly Islamic terrorist army over running the middle belt with impunity

Wonder how fulani jihadist killings at night when christians and their children are asleep becomes herdsmen and farmers clashes.

Thank God the world is seeing what we are seeing

Umu anumanu

Interesting read I must say and the various Lords captured this situation aptly. To my surprise, the leadership of Britain is not in a hurry to help Nigeria as they said the Farmer - Herder clash narrative absolutely captures the situation at hand. While the whole world may know of our pains, we feel the pains. We need to stand up to this injustice, wickedness and defend ourselves. It is only a matter of time, this thing will spread to other parts of Nigeria. When it occurs we would be too weakened to fight and all the wealth and survival we are pursuing will not help in any way.

They should come and find solution to the problems they left behind, because if the fulani terrorists destroy nigeria then many british banks will be affected

Don't mind the hypocrites. As if they were not the ones that handed over power to the fulanis and sustained them in power just cause they were more pliant than the "stubborn" and western educated Southerners.

Their masters have spoken if u know u know am sure dey are the ones who sent usman danfodio to sokoto we know dis guys dont love us

True

act of terrorism been given another name.

The world is watching.

Buhari is good only in the eyes of the oppressors of the people aka APC chieftains who are feeding fat on our commonwealth, and their BMC puppets.

Lol, Lords?! what are our obas saying?!

at least the west is observing.
i hope they take decisive actions soon.

They are "Fulani Terrorists".

I hope Mofe Oyatogun of Star fm Lagos sees this.
I know shes afraid of govt sha

British are inherent back stabbers. Where were the so-called House of Lords in 1967 when Harold Wilson of Labor Party declared that Biafra must be defeated through any means possible?
