Rubbish! These guys should be arrested for complicity!

This is not a case of hostilities but of deliberate ethnic cleansing of defenceless people.

How many Fulani's are in Benue State to begin with? And who told these guys Fulani population is 18m nationwide?

Their population and everything they claim in terms of size are all fictions. But the rest of the regions are too stupid and complacent to bust the myth. It is the myth they use to hijack elections by registering goats,children and Chadian as voters.

All that we are suffering is as a result of the greed of southern governors. If the southern governors could act in unison, Nigeria will be happily divorced in less than 3 months, or we will be effectively restructured. All this is nonsense of the highest order!

This man is a compound fool. What about other states you have killing people. The truth is that fulanis are animals that are not suppose to live with human. The most annoying part is their grand patron has never and does not want to say anything. Meaning he is in their support. Meaning he is also an animal

Pierohandsome:
This people think they have rights other dnt have. The peace in Taraba state is not because of any suite instituted but because the Mambilla people of Taraba gave the fulanis their on doze by killing them without reservation. The only language those demons called fulani herdsmen understand is violence and that is what the people of Taraba gave to them and are stil ready to repeat it if not for the state government Ishaku's intervention.

But the Benue youths are cowards and that is why those idiots are running them dwn at wil. They must rise and take their destiny in their hand by dealing with them like the Tarabas did
I'm so happy with this your comment.. you are blessed

Why won't Fulani herdsmen claim to be 18million. If Ijaw can be 15million, nothing stops Fulani herdsmen to be what they want to be...

So Benue govt cannot enact law again to safeguard the lives and properties of Benue people, they have to consult the Fulani first??

Im way too big for exchanging invectives esp with faceless persons on forums as this. Go and check the 200h census figures. Bayelsa the only heterogenous 'Ijaw' state had roughly 1.1Million persons. Rivers had 5.6M and Delta had about 4M persons. The Ijaws arent upto a third of Rivers state population and im sure same applies in Delta. The total Ijaw figures from the 3 states is pegged at Rougly 3million.. How did 3million become 15million after just 11yrs. I understand that the population of a people in Nigeria is directly proportional to their federal allocation but Ijaws have taken clowning to a whole new level as thier claims is nothing but comic relief. It is safe to say all Ogonis, Etches, Urhobos, Itsekiris, Ikwerres, Ibibios et al are now Ijaws.

This is just your opinion from an ignorant stand point without facts, Ijaws are native to six states organizations like cia and the Nigerian nation with data available to them have put their population at 10% of Nigeria, you have to provide links from credible authorities where you got your figures if not you are just having a beer parlour discussion
