Why is the Buhari-led FG doing this? The problem may go out of hand. I think it's high time we follow FFK's advise, let's arm ourselves for the rainy day.

Listened to classic FM this morning. I couldn't believe that the analysts spent more time discussing grazing areas rather than the heinous acts perpetrated by these marauding Fulani herdsmen. I think we southerners are the one enslaving ourselves. This our cowardice is legendary.

This Osho slowpoke is simply saying nonsense. If these herdsmen try any nonsense on our lands, we will behead each and every one of them. Okada and iguobazuwa incidents are just child's compared to the one that would befall these fulani herdsmen this time around. It would be a total annihilation of the fulani tribe once and for all.

I would rather dying fighting for the lands of my ancestors than to be allowed to be slaughtered in my soil by fulani herdsmen.

The country goes down the drain as expected.

One nigeria is a waste of time.

The apc government is too incompetent to fashion out solution to the problem.

The Edo State Governor, Adams Oshiomhole, has warned Fulani herdsmen and local farmers in the state to maintain the peace or face the wrath of the law.The governor said the state would neither ban grazing nor farming.

This was contained in a statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the Edo State Governor, Peter Okhiria, on Monday.He quoted Oshiomhole as saying this at a stakeholders’ meeting, which was convened to find lasting solutions to the clashes between the herdsmen and farmers in the state.The governor said if not properly managed, the crisis “can escalate beyond what we can manage quietly.”

He added, “Edo State Government will prosecute any rapist, any kidnapper, any rustler, who takes people’s cows. I think listening to all the stakeholders, whether royal fathers, farmers, Fulani herdsmen, everybody agreed that neither rape nor robbery, nor destruction of farms, nor rustling of cattle is acceptable.

“I think we are all committed to ensuring that we put an end to any of these practices so that all of us can continue to live together in peace, harmony and in security.“In every conflict, you will find someone you can describe as the oppressor. Somebody might be blamed, but every conflict can be resolved if all the parties approach the solution with honest intentions and whatever agreement reached, we faithfully try to implement. That way, there will be peace.

“Like the migrant Fulani representative said, ‘you cannot decree a solution, but we can work towards a solution.’ And we have to use both carrot and stick approach.”Oshiomhole said the state would set up about 19 committees, one committee in each of the 18 Local Government Areas of the state to resolve the recurring clashes.

He explained that the membership of the panel would include traditional rulers, farmers, community leaders, youth leaders and the representatives of the Fulani herdsmen.


[b]Meanwhile, the Ondo State Governor, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, has declared that the incessant attacks on farmers by Fulani herdsmen in the South-West and some other parts of the country must be checked.Mimiko feared that if the attacks of the herdsmen were not curtailed urgently, the development might lead the country to the precipice.

The governor called on President Muhammadu Buhari and other stakeholders to be more proactive about the attacks in order to stop them from degenerating to a serious crisis in the country.

Mimiko stated this on Monday after a meeting with the members of the Oodua Peoples Congress in his office in Akure, the state capital.The Fulani herdsmen allegedly invaded the farm of a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Chief Olu Falae, last week and killed a guard, identified as Ayodele Ige, who was one of the leaders of the OPC in the state.

The herdsmen had earlier in September, 2015 invaded the farm, where they kidnapped Falae, a former finance minister, and only released him after three days after collecting a ransom.The governor said he had met with the security agencies in the state over the issue, assuring the OPC members that the killers of the deceased would soon be fished out.

Mimiko added, “We are moving towards the precipice and the earlier we pull back… and it requires all the stakeholders from the President and all major stakeholders to come together on how to resolve this issue.

“These herdsmen must be cautioned, these wanton destruction, audacious incursions into other people’s territory cannot continue for too long.

“We have put in place a lot of fire-fighting efforts in the last 48 hours to ensure that there are no retaliatory attacks from the OPC. “The Ondo State Coordinator of the OPC, Mr. Pius Ogunsanya, appealed to the government and the security agents to arrest and prosecute the killers of Ige. He vowed that the group would avenge the killing of the OPC leader if the government failed to arrest the perpetrators of the heinous act.

“We are appealing to the governor to beg the Federal Government to find solution to the activities of these herdsmen. They must find the killers of our man; if they do not find him, we too may go after the herdsmen,” he stated.[/b]

For your Igbotic mind you think every Nigerian will willingly chose to be as foolish as you.

Everyone is not sick in the head and they would rather find a solution than threaten the peace which is unlike what ipob Biafrans have been programmed to do.

I saw only one man talking sense (Mimiko), the other man (Oshiomole) is talking rubbish, blaming his own people for the sins of the fulanis.

Oshiomhole has to be politically correct....when your principal has not taken a stand on the matter.....sigh....we make governance so difficult for ourselves. I tell you. 99% of Nigerians identify first with their ethnicity before their country. This nation sore needs restructuring. No other way.

This is absolutely insanity. This whole scenario sounds like something out of the onion. What gives them the right to trespass on the property of others?! These entitled idiots go out if their way to destroy crops they had no part in planting. Fulanis have practiced this nomadic bullshit for centuries. For centuries they haven't been able to find a solution to their grazing woes?! These unintelligent dirtbags can't even come up with irrigation that was practiced over 1000 years ago in ancient Mesopotamia! I think it's time to do some cleansing;these guys are too unintelligent to live.
