Buhari Lied, Herdsmen Carry Ak47s & Other Weapons -Defence HQ Shocks The World by Wisdomkosi(m): 9:39am On Jul 07, 2018
Contrary to what President Buhari told the world when he visited, US President, Donald Trump recently, that Nigerian herdmen dont carry Guns but only sticks and machetes, Defence Headquarters, Abuja , has said armed herdsmen attacked the troops of Operation Whirl Stroke in the Keana Local Government Area of Nasarawa State , killing two soldiers and injuring five others, including the Commanding Officer .

The DHQ on Wednesday said the troops, however, remained undaunted as they had arrested 21 militias in Nasarawa and 13 others in Benue .

The military said the herdsmen carried out the attacks last Tuesday, but the troops were able to recover weapons including one AK – 47 rifle, two locally – made guns and 800 rounds of 7 . 62mm special ammunition .

Operation Whirl Stroke was established on June 8 by the military to restore peace and security in Benue , Nasarawa , Taraba, and Zamfara States that are witnessing herdsmen ’ s crises .
The acting Director of Defence Information , Brig – Gen . John Agim , stated this at a briefing to review the activities and achievements of the operation .

Agim said , “ Some troops of the Operation Whirl Stroke carried out a cordon and search operation at a suspected herdsmen militia camp at the Bakin Kota village in the Keana LGA of Nasarawa State on June 26, at 6 am . After the operation , the militia elements regrouped and attacked our team , killing two soldiers and injuring five personnel including the Officer Commanding .

“ Following this incident , some troops were mobilised for reinforcement. In the firefight that ensued , some of the militia sustained injuries . Our troops were able to destroy their camp.
“ The Chairman of the Nasarawa State branch of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria , Mohammed Hussein , later accused the military of killing six Fulani herdsmen and hundreds of cattle in the newspapers on June 28 . This is not true. The information is completely false and unfounded .

“ We want the people in these four states to go about their lawful duties without fear of molestation from any quarters . We have done this at a great cost to our personnel which includes some who died .
“ While the military is not in a hurry to link MACBAN to this militia, an investigation has begun to unravel those behind the death of our men . The military is ready to take down those who are responsible alongside their sponsors no matter how highly placed . ”
The military spokesperson said apart from the 34 suspects arrested in Benue and Nasarawa , 20 weapons were recovered.

“So far, the troops have arrested 21 suspects , recovered 20 weapons and 882 rounds of assorted ammunition in Nasarawa State.
Similarly , 13 suspects have been apprehended in Benue State . The Air Force component has flown a total of 54 sorties totalling 90 hours and 25 minutes , using the Mi – 35 helicopter gunship , the F- 7 Ni supersonic jet , and the Mi – 35M , ” Agim noted.

In buhari's terrorist eyes, herdsmen don't carry ak47. This is his position even when fulani terrorist herdsmen has been indexed fourth most deadliest terrorist group in the world by the international community. Tells you how much buhari is involved with fulani herdsmen terrorist activities in the country.

I'm sure lying and nepotism are not part of the definition of corruption in Nigeria.

Now they are doing investigation, merely arresting obviously armed criminal fulani herdsmen but are not in a hurry to link MACBAN. Yet, when soldiers were killed in a village, they went immediately on a killing spree, mowing down unarmed villagers and burning houses without benefit of investigation. Make una continue o! Until ds water go swallow una.

These same people are causing havoc in Ghana Mali and Niger but Buhari says their cows are more important than the voters that put him there.
