THE Presidency has dismissed insinuations in some quarters that the recent upsurge of herdsmen Killings across the country was because a Fulani man is at the helm of affairs.

The presidency stated this while attributing that under the last administration 756 people were killed by herdsmen within a space of two years.

The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina on Wednesday insisted that the recent spate of killings by herdsmen in parts of the country had nothing to do with President Muhammadu Buhari being Fulani.

“Something that is disturbing that I have heard about it is linking those developments to the fact that a Fulani man is President and so, he is brooking such kind of evil acts.

“I think that is very unkind. And I will try to back my position with statistics.

“In 2013, particularly, there were nine cases of herdsmen invading communities in Benue state alone and more than 190 people were killed.

“In 2014, there were about 16 of such tragic developments with more than 231 people killed. And then there was a change of government in May 2015.

“But between January and May 2015, there were six attacks which left about 335 people dead.

“Now, the question is, during that period, did we have a Fulani president?”

“It is the duty of government to preserve the lives of the citizenry. It is the responsibility of government to maintain law and order and that this government is determined to do.

“Therefore, let nobody say that all this is happening because we have a Fulani president.

“We have had many Fulani presidents in the past and this issue of herders and local communities at loggerheads has predated this government.

“But I will just like to appeal to Nigerians that the Muhammadu Buhari government is determined to crack this issue, is determined to get to the bottom of it and it will get done,” he said in a video recording uploaded on his Facebook timeline.

The upsurge is because Fayose is an Igbo man from Ekiti state

Its because I am a red Indian

Really?

So why has he not taken a decisive action to curtail their menance?

It is well with people that have no heart, Nigeria has lost her citizens to her own wicked leadership. The blood of the poor women and innocent children will hunt these leaders that refuse to live up to their responsibility
