How many times did you people's god deploy troops in 8hrs to anywhere?? On Chibok, the goat on hearing the news, sat back and drank ogogoro for two weeks before acknowledging anything had happened, then he waited another 3months to deploy troops after some 16year old Pakistani kid went to scold some sense into him.

[b]Unfortunately, the 'Fulani herdsmen' issue has been around since OBJs government as I remember. That was when the grading reserve bill reared its head.

The issue is that the Fulani's have been migrating further south due to the encroachment of the Sahara desert over the years. Their gradual southward migration has led to more interaction with farming tribes of the middle belt and southern Nigeria and with this comes violence as they struggle to grab more land for their cattle. Some don't even return to the north anymore.

The issue like many of Nigeria's issue is a complex one and needs both short and long term solutions. Just like corruption, Boko Haram, Niger Delta militancy, fuel scarcity, lack of electricity, unemployment, herdsmen attacks are all symptoms of a non functional country.

I await to see how the current government will address the issue on the long run because unleashing soldiers on the hersdsmen is a short term solution (same for Niger Delta militancy and Boko Haram). That won't be enough.

As for OP, he is just reacting emotionally to an issue that requires a lot of level headed thinking. Any political analyste worth his weight knows that supporting PDP or APC is not even the issue here. Buhari's reaction if you're following the developments now is even swifter than GEJ against Boko Haram calling them his brothers. More people were dying daily that period

Two wrongs cannot be mutually justified and no death from violence can ever be proven worthy so partisanship is not what we should be taking about.

We should be focused on how to get to a mlre feasile solution. I'm my head, don't see how the grazing reserve wil work unless the 19 northern states come.together and agree on how to manage the reserves with staes have the final eight to opt-in or out of the reserves.

Such optional reserves will force the Fulani to become less nomadic and more domesticated thereby increasing the likelihood that he will look into alternative means of growing feed for his cattle. That should should lead to better interactions with Farmers who can sell him hay or feedstock and to modernisation of cattle rearing practises.

Just like the oil spills in the ND, soil erosion in the SE, the desertification of the North is a disaster that needs to be tackled.

Others may have better ideas. Please bring them on. APC vs PDP is not the solution.

I am tempted to call this Buhari man 'lanky old fool' but let me wait.

Could not deploy security in 8hrs to Uzo-Uwani to prevent Fulani herdsmen attack, but did that in 1hr to forestall reprisal attack from the youths.

Is Buhari not mad?

Fabrolistic:


are you that silli
If you claim the chibok saga wasn't a drama, what stoped the moronic bornu state gorvenor from reporting to the president about the incident. Just take a look at ugwuanyi, how long did he wait before taking to aso rock

Memuna, if we are to take into consideration numbers before looking at government intervention, then I must say the herdsmen haven't done enough.

AAAdam:
During Jonathan's regime northern were vital complaint of the Fulani's attacks but you sit and turn deep ears and regards the issue as internal crises. the day Jonathan go to Katsina state nothing less than 20 people lost their lives in Faskari local gov't of the same Katsina has he sent Condelence message during the rally? No. we are also victim of the acts. I'm justifying the menace but you should bear in mind that others have faced the some and your brother 'Jonathan' did nothing.

You always accused Fulani for the attacks in your community, pls what do you have to prove it? Even though they are, are they from Nigeria or neighborhoods?

Buhari does not have the duty of security personnel deployment, that rests with the Buratai, GOC 82nd division and CP of Enugu ands Arase. There are over 750 LGA in Nigeria and the president can't be babysitting them all. Nigerians need to accept their lots of responsibility.

PapaBrowne:
I saw this on Facebook.... I cant verify. So judge for yourselves

___________
If you are confused or wonder about what happened in Enugu yesterday, this is the timeline as Ariaku Emeh Iroh's wall provides it:

1. Governor Ugwuanyi gets information that Uzouwani will be attacked as some herdsmen from Nassarawa are converging near the community.

2. "There was a call made by Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi to the president, he was put on hold for over an hour 15 minutes.

3. This call was made in the presence of 13 men and 4 women, the president aid (aide)told the Governor that the president will get back to him.

4.The president through his aid(aide) after 4 hrs told Enugu state governor that the president will do something about it.

5. "...Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi on hearing that the police have not arrived at Uzouwani called GOC 82 division for help. He was refereed to the presidency again.

6. This time around, he was put on hold for nearly 2 hrs again, while waiting to speak to the president. News came in that the attack he was planning to prevent has actually taken place.

7. Within an hour, the commissioner and GOC who refereed the Governor to the president has mobilised their men to stop retaliation. The same way Lagos and Agatu was attacked and retaliation prevented.

We need to know why police commissioner and GOC need presidency order before they can protect the innocent citizens?.

We need to know - why police and military sent their men to Uzouwani after the attack to prevent retaliation?.

We need to know why a sitting Governor cannot use the support of police and military to protect his people?.

How many blames have you directed at your miserable state governor who has denied your rival lie (shame you, as old as you are, still hold unto the lie even after the governor's denial. A demonic lie that emanated from a miserable Israeli urchin on facebook, simply because it aligns with your bigoted opinion about the president) about him calling Buhari and the president not answering his call?? Chibok is Shetima's fault but Enugu is Buhari's.

BlackBaron:
More Southerners would also have to look into rearing livestock. No law bars us from having cattle.

I'd be more wary than ever now of any attempt to foist herdsmen into Southern communities under the guise of grazing reserves. There's a probability that once settled, the future may see similar patterns of conflicts like prevalent in the middle belt. Their attacks also indicates they are a reasonable threat of terrorism to the any community.

Time for them to modernise, Kenyan nomads ain't exactly walking all across the length and breadth of their country looking for food, so it's untenable fulani herdsmen can not tailor their operations to run in tandem with modern lifestyle.
