Afenifere slams FG over silence on Fulani herdsmen’ killings.

Dayo Johnson Akure

THE Pan- Yoruba Socio-Political Group, Afenifere on Tuesday lashed out at the Federal government for being indifferent to the wanton killings by the Fulani herdsmen going on across the country.

Pointedly, the group wondered why government through the Information Minister Lai Muhammed said it was working silently on the matter while killings were done openly by the herdsmen. Rising from its monthly meeting held in Akure, the group rejected the statement credited to the minister saying several killing “cannot be going on openly and government is working silently”.

A communique issued at the end of the groups monthly meeting in Akure which lasted five hours was read by its spokesman Yinka Odumakin.

They said “we reject the statement of Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Muhammed that the federal government is working silently on this matter. “Several killings cannot be going on in the open and the federal government says it’s working silently, it is unfortunate that that statement is coming from the federal government of Nigeria. “There can’t be any silent working over these killing and the action of the federal government must be opened.

They therefore called on President Muhamadu Buhari “to speak up on this matter and to take urgent action to restore the peace of people of Nigeria, especially in the south and middle belt.

Yesterday’s meeting was attended by leaders of the group across the states at the Country home of their Chairman, Pa Reuben Fasoranti

‎According to the Communique “The meeting is worried about recent spate of killings by Fulani herdsmen across the country as evident in Agatu killings, the murder of Olu Falae’s guard in his farm, the killings in Ibadan and the latest being the heinous murder of over 40 Nigerians in cold blood in Enugu.

“We are worried that federal government seems to have maintained indifference to the wanton killings going on across the country against the provisions of the constitution. “That the federal government has a duty to protect the lives and properties of every citizens of nigeria.

We call on President Muhammadu Buhari to speak up on this matter and to take urgent action to restore the sense of people of Nigeria, especially in the south and middle belt .

“We are also worried that the DSS which highly went to the press to say that they discover a grave in the south east where they said they found the bodies of the Fulani men without any DNA has continue to maintain silence also over these killings across the country.

“The DSS had failed to establish that the bodies is from any ethnic group. It’s an organization for all Nigerians and therefore should be concerned and should make the report on the killing across the country not just what they called the killing of people from certain ethnic among the over 250 groups in Nigeria.

“In view of the fact that Yoruba nation has have more than fair share of this siege in the country by these Fulani herdsmen, we demand immediate meeting of all South west governors irrespective of their party affiliation. ” They should ensure that they meet to device means and ways to protect the lives of their citizens and properties against these invaders who are rampaging everywhere

“We equally call on our member in the National Assembly to stand up and speak out on what is going on now so that they can be seen as true representatives of their people

“We believe that given the fact that Nigeria is threading on the path of disintegration if the issue of Fulani herdsmen is not well handled, we demand the immediate implementation of the 2014 CONFAB report which provided solutions to most of the problems confronting Nigerians including the issues of the Fulani herdsmen.

Which right channel The police that were informed before Enugu attack happened but did nothing or the interior minister that blamed social media

Are you from mars? What has Daura secret service done so far than giving support to those terrorists. Better you keep quiet than spew rubbish.

No one is happy with what's going on. These fulani herdsmen are biting more than they can chew. Call me a prophet of doom but Nigeria is on the brink of a civil war. This time around not by IPOB, MASSOB or even the igbos but by the fulanis. PMB is playing politics with people's life by not addressing the atrocities committed by his kinsmen. But what PMB doesn't understand is that this time around the Middle Belt, South East, South West and the South South won't join them. They'll be totally outnumbered this time around.

Buhari is a confirmed Sunni terrorist. After eliminating the Shiite, he now wants to give his fulani militias an inheritance.

Governors in the SW and SE are just a bunch of misfits. These ediots would rather watch the marauding herdsmen kill their own people rather than protect them because they don't want o offend Buhari. This is the height of cowardice.

I fear for the SW. We've been divided along party lines. No one cares about the Yoruba interest any longer. all what they care about are the interest of their party and religion. mtcheew

cool Now talk about a matured practical response (not useless ultimatums). What Afenifere is saying in summary is:

cool Buhari do your job of protecting Nigerians meanwhile we will put security measures in place to protect our own people. cool

This just buttresses the need for state police. The Fulani herdsmen would have been checked if each state had its own police. Afenifere has rightly enumerated what must be done. The President should not silently deal with the crisis. He didn't silently send soldiers to the Niger-Delta nor to the North--East. His silence is edging people towards self-defense which is injurious to the continued existence of the country.

Before anything, President Buhari should come out publicly and condemn this act.

It is shocking that I am yet to read of President Buhari condemning this publicly without using a spokesman.

If it is to enter plan from here to the end of the world. He will go.
