You try,.....
But the attacks is beyond our imagination. there are more to it, other than the herdsmen and farmer clashing. that is exactly what they want us to beleive, but someday oneday the truth shall prevail.

The way things are going in this country, maybe cattles are been placed on a higher value than human beings. xo next census will capture both cattle beings nd human beings.

Even if there was no form of attack on the animals, they'll still find reasons to cause havoc.
I mean these guys are murderers, they're out to kill.

The way to solve the problem is simple: give Fulani herdsmen the whole sambisa forest as a graving reserve area. That would be more than enough to feed all the cows in Nigeria and the environs.

QS, how far now?

straighttalk:
There is also a politically motivated "herdsmen" attack to give the present administration bad name.
No mhan...it's worse than that...
What's gonna happen in Nigeria is going be our own doing with the people who are responsible for all this blameless...
Some mischievous minds are pushing one part of the country to the wall in a bid to seriously frustrate them and when this people fight back,they are gonna be attacking people who had nothing to do with it...Then the people behind it are just going to sit back and watch the whole thing in HD.
The media is the catalyst that's gonna speed up this process...If you were one of those people who got the WhatsApp message flying around 2-3 months around of how herdsmen killed people that were travelling,you'd understand what I'm trying to say...

[quote author=ChangeIsCostant post=65971258]A Nigerian man based in Abuja, Che Oyinatumba, has weighed in on the Fulani herdsmen crisis which has been rocking the country for some time now - after meeting a Fulani cattle rearer earlier today. According to him, when a cow is attacked, the 'ordinary' herdsmen will notify the owner of the cow. The owner will now tell armed bandits who will finally raid the attacker's village or area and wreck havoc.

Che Oyinatumba who shared pictures of his meeting with the herder - said the solution to the herdsmen crisis is honesty and the political will by the federal government.

Below is what he shared on Facebook;

To solve herdsmen-community problem, is easy. All that is required is honesty and political will by the Federal Government as; Every cow, has an owner; Every owner knows where his cow is; It is not calculus or atomic physics for Government to know whose cow entered whose farm and the next day a village is raided!!

Here I am with a herdsman; A mere rearer-Caretaker for the own of the cow. He is armed with nothing but a stick and a smile; Attack the cow, he will tell the owner, The owner will tell armed bandits and they will raid your village in the name of this innocent few toothed herdsman!

All that we need to do is to breed our own cows. Ranch bred cows are healthier, more nourishing and produce more milk. When there's lower demand for 'wakawaka' cows, there'll be peace.

Nwaohafia1:
Yes, we know nah.The herders you see are not the attackers. They have their armed group who on invitation by the owner of the cows invade any village they are told to attack.

Politicians, Fulanis, Igbos, Yorubas, Hausas, etc are all into cattle business.
what Igbo and Yorubas are into Cattle business on a relevant scale?

Bros, it seemed to me like you really don't understand what you're saying!
imagine your proposition to a problem that you've not sat down, carry out proper researches and interview victims of fulani-herdsmen attack. You should probably do this first before coming up with counsel for a more confused government as ours. besides, the battle you see today has long begun! So please find a better proposition!

The nomadic Fulani man you see moving around with herd of cattle do not own up to 95% of the cows in their herd. Rather most of these cows are owned by wealthy and powerful, educated and city dwelling Fulanis who cut across from the private sector, military, civil service, politicians and powerful Amirs.

The arrangement is a simple one. A rich city dwelling Fulani man approaches the illiterate bush Fulani who falls under the Fulani sub-group (and inferior as well) known as Bororo, to supply at a given date and place a number of cows.

The Bororo is paid a fraction upfront of the cost of what the cow will sell when mature and at the market value.

A typical arrangement is about ten to fifteen thousand Naira per cow. Which will be delivered on average within one year.

The rich fulani will pay for as much as 100 herds of cow. The bush Fulani is then obliged to not only breed successfully the 100 cows but also rear and nurture them as well as deliver to the cattle market of choice of the Rich Fulani who has an agent ready to take possession and sell off the cows at an average cost of 120 - 250k depending on the location of the market (cows cost more in the south than in the north).

The Rich city dwelling Fulani is thus guaranteed to make a 1000% turnover on each cow he invests with the bush Fulani. Note, that the likes of Amir Sanusi will have at least 10 -20 bush fulani herders working for him with at least 200 cows per herder. That alone will tell you how much the Fulani elite are making off the back of their Bororo cousins.

Another point to ponder is the exponential increase of the number of Fulani herders in both the middle-belt and southern Nigeria since May 29, 2015. Most of these herders you see roaming around in the south are actually displaced Fulani from the anti-Balaka conflict in far away Central African Republic. These are displaced Fulani who the non-Muslim majority in C.A.R. have since chased out of their country. Others were encouraged to migrate from Ghana, Togo and Benin after the grand Patron of Miyetti Allah, Muhammadu Buhari who also happens to serve in the highest capacity in the apex body of the Fulani people of West Africa, was sworn in as President. Buhari today is the most powerful Fulani man on earth.

The Fulani Militia are the same with the Fulani herdsmen.

Most of the attacks carried out by the Fulani terrorist utilize Fulani herdsmen from another state to commit their atrocities.

That "friendly" Fulani that you think you know all these years in your community has taken part in at least one killing in another part of the country.

The financial gain which the city dwelling Fulani like El Rufai, Sanusi and Buhari stand to lose from the enactment of anti-grazing law is tremendous. They will do anything whatsoever to protect their hegemony in the cattle business and that not only involves wiping out any community that stand in their way to graze their cattle but any effort that will see their Bororo cousins emancipated from their enslavement - the reason why they killed the almajiri and nomadic schools set up by GEJ!

Another important point to consider on what is fueling the conflict between Fulani herdsmen and farmers, is the astronomical increase in the number of herders who as I earlier stated were deliberately imported from outside the country. Apart from having more herding slaves, the City Fulani want to grow their population and also forcefully have Fulani settlements in every corner of Nigeria so as to have a representative voice in every state to which they can grow and expand the kind of influence they have over the Awusa north and Muslim Middle Belt. The cattle colony was the very step towards that plan.

The grazing route argument was quickly discarded in prefrence to permanent Fulani settlements in the guise of Cattle colonies because there is no historical grazing route in southern Nigeria! Grazing routes were first carved out by the British in places like Nassarawa and Benue to stem the persistent Fulani encroachment on both the natives' farms but also the British operated plantations and prison farms in the middle belt.

Never had there ever been any gazetted grazing route that extended into southern Nigeria either in pre-colonial or post Colonial Nigeria. The British could not impose laws on the south without parliamentary approval and so the issue of grazing route in the north was never extended to the south. Also, the vegetation back then in the south did not encourage cow grazing as the thick virgin forests in the south harbored Tse-Tse flies which were known to be dangerous to cattle. So it would be highly foolish for someone to carve out grazing reserves across southern Nigeria when it is known that the forest harbour the dangerous Tse-Tse fly.

De-forestation in the south has pitched the south as the next target for Fulani land grabbing and they want to achieve this through replacement of the natives through genocide, forced secession of land and massive migration of Fulanis from all over West Africa and Central Africa.

If you like still be defending Fulani.

Idiots

life2017:
the op just revealed the truth.
The rich who owns these cows are the terrorists.

Although the rich owners of these cows are mostly Northerners and politicians, we have some of them who are
igbos, yorubas etc.

I also think there are opposition politicians who are spreading these killings for political gains in 2019.
because if these owners were Pro Buhari, they would have calm down the killings by now and resume thier killings after election.

The greatest issue that can destroy Buhari in 2019 is the herdsmen issue. The opposition knows this.

On the other hand, Buhari is not helping matters with his complacent body language. He is too narrow minded to act like a statesman he was suppose to be at his age.



May God bless you for this comment.



I find people dumb whenever they claim that those herdsmen are pro Buhari, if they are pro Buhari aren't they shooting themselves on the leg?
