if the allegations are not true where were they when the attack took place? Imagine wasting human lives & they farm products from the food basket of a nation? Indeed there was a country!

There is a serious campaign of calumny against the Nigerian Army sponsored by some useles unpatriotic politicians in the opposition, who are bent on making the President because his is Fulani look sympathetic to killer militias sponsored by the same group.
you are not making sense both your president and the army has the power to stop the carnage, if they can't then they are complicit and this your conspiracy theory will hold no water.

Residents of Gbeji, Tse Akaanya and Tse Hiityo where Fulani herdsmen invaded last week Wednesday and Thursday, killed more than 50 people and destroyed properties worth millions of naira have accused the Nigerian Army of colluding and leading the Fulani militias to attack their villages.

Narrating their ordeal before the Commissioner for Industry, Trade and Investment, Prof. Tersoo Kpelai who took a team of journalists to the communities to asses the level of destruction and commiserate with the families, Mr. Sunday Kulegwa and Iortaver Idye (the most elderly person in Gbeji town) all pointed accusing fingers on the army noting that army personnel using official vehicles were not only spotted on the scene of the attacks with the invaders but also participated in the shooting and killing of innocent people.

Similarly, in Tse Akaanya and Tse Hiityo all in Lumbuv council ward, Hon. Timothy Iorfa, Councilor representing Lumbuv ward, Austin Damsa and Terkaa Agera who witnessed the attack maintained that, men of the Nigerian Army in their personnel carriers and other army utility vehicles mounted with launchers and other sophisticated weapons were seeing shooting and killing people why the Fulani militias followed the troops burning houses and carting away with other valuables.

Reacting, Commissioner for Industry, Trade and Investment, Prof. Tersoo Kpelai condoles the family of the deceased saying it is worrisome that innocent people are attacked and killed in their ancestral homes without any slightest provocation and promised to liaise with the appropriate authorities to investigate allegations of military involvement in the attacks.

Prof. Kpelai also assured the communities that he will meet with the Executive Secretary, Benue State Emergency Management Agency to discus the way forward and see if Government will come to the aide of the displaced.

Wow, see burnt yams. Benue state as a sovereign country can feed its people and export. Benue population is more than the populations of many sovereign countries.

But cheap cash from crude oil in the Nigerdelta can't allow leaders of Benue state free their people in a sovereign country different from Nigeria wrecked with conflicts.

If Benue declares independence from Nigeria today, the rest of the world shall have sympathy for the country.

It's so simple for u to tell victim of shootings by criminals to take the pics for u to believe simply because u or ur family members are not involved. As far as I am concerned, Nigerian army are culprits in this atrocity if they cannot handle ordinary hardsmen, but they go to other African countries for peace keep and come back victorious. Let's keep praying for benue and taraba cos the way this whole thing is going, nobody knows the state that will be the next on the atrocity list. God save Nigerian.

you must be a Fulani. Killing is clear, everyone are seen it, isn't it army responsibility to protect those killed? Failure is obvious, when buhari want to forcefully acquire Land from all state for cattle Colony for Fulani's and went to UK and say thesame Fulani are Gaddafi's foot soldiers.

Mr e-warrior, how do you think boko haram stole chibok girls or break prisoners,

They usually dress in full military gear, with all the hilux & shyt, the only real military personnel can sniff them out, sometimes they pass check points like that before they are tracked & killed.

In fact when boko haram wanted to bust their members out of Bama prison way back. the dressed in full well ironed mopol uniforms weapons & dark SUVs, immediately they got accessed into the prison yard their was a shoot out, they over powered the guards & free them members

Which implies some folks high up in the Security Agencies are backing them => The Army, Police, Department of State and every other arms of Security are compromise and accomplice in the insecurity going on.....

So how do you explain the fact that after each attack by Fulani killers, the Army would show up and start arresting and disarming the local vigilantes instead of chasing the Fulani killers.
I'm sure you read about the incident in Edo State where the vigilante arrested some Fulani herdsmen that were robbing road users. Some soldiers drove up and killed the vigilante guy and freed the Fulani herdsman.

You think you're​ talking to children.

First, if this was true and the army was not involved, they would have swung into action long ago to redeem their name.
Second, reports of soldiers being complicit in crime did not start today. It has been reported in Jos before now and when during the Itsekiri - ijaw crisis.
Third, a former CODS and Minister of Defense has made the same claim. I'm sure he has more information than you.

Meantime, the goat1 elected to look after the nation's affairs is abroad gallivanting.

Buhari will not be in power forever. Scores will be leveled one day

1. Lets just assume goat means greatest of all time.

well sha Mr adult believe what you want, am just speaking from what I saw with my own two eyes, not something CODs or minister of defence compiled on paper to tell you guys. the army might have some traitors, but they ain't stupid enough to commit what was stated in this article. people like you are easily brainwash by the media while you claim to be smart & civilised. well , what ever, believe whatever makes you feel better, Gudnyt

Absolutely not true.

The Fulani usually hire mercenaries to do this dirty work and they are masters of war.

I very much suspect that the mercenaries most likely work in collaboration with rogue elements in the army to perpetuate these crimes.

The army is well structured and mixed tribally so it is hard to believe the army can successfully collude with these Fulani murderers


For how long would we keep living in denial that the NA has been infiltrated and collude with killer herdsmen?

Just keep shut there. Is it a coincidence that the security apparatus of the country is controlled by one section of the country in a multi-ethnic country like Nigeria? I hope the killing by the Fulani, aided by the Fulani cabal in the Army, reaches your community so that your eyes will clear up.
