PORT HARCOURT— Clerics in Rivers State have raised alarm, alleging that suspected Fulani herdsmen armed with dangerous weapons have invaded some forests in the state with a view of launching attack on the state. The clergymen, from different platforms, Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, and Directorate of Religious Freedom and Church Collaboration of Christian Lawyers Fellowship of Nigeria, alleged that suspected herdsmen with arms had invaded communities in the state. In a statement, yesterday, Chairman of CAN, Rev. Isaac Anyanasikike, stated that the herdsmen were already intimidating land owners in some rural communities of the state and acquiring land for grazing. Anyanasikike who read the statement on-behalf of CAN and CLASFON, adding that tension was already rising in communities of the state following the presence of the herdsmen. The clerics urged residents of the state, especially farmers in the rural communities to be vigilant while on their daily businesses in the forests. He said: “It has come to our knowledge that Fulani herdsmen or cattle rearers have constituted themselves into an embarrassing nuisance in rural communities in the various local government areas of the state where they graze their cattle with impunity on lands and or farms belonging to the natives and accompanied by their propensity for violence and other horrible forms of criminality whenever they are challenged by the land owners. “That the Fulani herdsmen are still roaming the forests and farmlands in Rivers State with dangerous weapons and other instruments of violence without the security and law enforcement agents doing anything to check this pervasive use of unauthorised or unlicensed arms thereby leaving the lives of the majority of our rural community dwellers at avoidable risk in unacceptable.” http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/06/clerics-raise-alarm-alleged-herdsmens-invasion-rivers-forests/ 1 Like |

DoyenExchange: Have you heard our president ever talk about these Fulani invaders and MURDERERS No! He doesn't care. The pretence is over. He has achieved what he FAILED to achieve in 2003, 2007 and 2011 after he was packaged by the Jagbajantis crew to deceive their zombies.
