A group under the aegis of Movement Against Fula­ni Occupation (MAFO), yesterday staged a peaceful dem­onstration in Makurdi, the Benue state capital, demanding the Fed­eral Government to take decisive action against the Fulani crisis in Benue State and all other re­ligious related issues across the country.
The group which condemned the wanton killings in Agatu, Tar­ka, Buruku, Kwande, Makur­di and other parts of the state, called on the indigenes of the state to boycott eating beef until the herdsmen end their attacks.
Addressing the protesters, leaders of the group, Pastor Dave Ogbole, Rev Father Solomon Uk­eyima and Elder Narths Apir, in their various addresses demand­ed that the Federal Government institute a probe into the killings and the reason why Fulani herds­men were allowed to traverse freely with sophisticated weap­ons as against the law.
While also lamenting the scale of destruction witnessed, the leaders described the cur­rent crisis as worrisome, saying it is aimed at desensitizing the na­tional consciousness.
“The on-going ethnic cleans­ing has been mischievously la­beled Fulani/herdsmen crisis under circumstances that are at best efforts to desensitize the na­tional consciousness to the enor­mity of the scale on which Benue State people are being wiped-out on a daily basis”, one of the lead­ers stated.
The group which later pre­sented its position to the Benue State House of Assembly urged it to expedite action on the Fulani/ Headsmen Bill already with the Assembly and to also look deep­ly into the issues raised as con­tained in their position.
It also requested the Federal Government to provide compen­sation and relief to the victims of the invasion, so as to alleviate their hardship.

Some gluttons wil boycott the call

Nigerians should be protesting by now on the streets.If people are capable of going around killing one another, which does not lead to lasting peaces, they should be able to organize massive protest. This is one of the few causes that deserves that one million man march that everyone keeps wanting to take place. Nigerians need to call for the end of cattle droving in Nigeria if peace cannot be guaranteed. Revenge Killing only plays into the hands of the political types, giving them the excuse to turn this into conflict for their ulterior motives of gain. Protest, kill that land reservation bill and cattle droving before it eventually kills Nigeria.
