Former Nigerian Head of State, Gen. Yakubu Gowon (rtd) on Saturday visited Benue state Governor Samuel Ortom in Makurd, the State capital.

The Elder Statesman visited the state to commiserate with the government and people of the Benue over the killings in the state which he feared was taking a religious dimension.

Speaking to journalists at the Government House in Makurdi, Gen. Gowon expressed disappointment over the handling of security situation in the country, calling for immediate questioning of the leaders of Miyetti Allah.

He, however, commended Governor Ortom and the Benue State government for the way the issue was being handled.

He said “I think security agencies should invite and question the leadership of Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore who had earlier threatened to unleash violence on Benue State.

“I was out of the country when two priests and 17 worshipers were killed in a church in the state during a morning mass. I extend my condolences to the government and people of the state.

“I am sad and worried at the religious dimension the killings is assuming, the authorities should redouble their effort to deal with the security situation because if that is not done, the country could descend into a religious war, with no one coming out victorious.

“For us to survive as a nation; we must learn to live together as one regardless of ethnicity or religion.”

Welcoming the elder statesman, Governor Ortom, represented by his Deputy, Engr Benson Abounu thanked him for coming to commiserate with them and lending his voice for the federal government to take decisive actions to end the violence.

He disclosed that though the killings have reduced due to the change of tactics by the military who upgraded their operation in the state from “exercise cat race” to “operation whirl stroke,” the threat is not over yet as killings still go on in many places.”

if you go down to Benue and see for yourself how these barbaric killings are carried out there is no way you will not agree that it is as a result of complicity on the part of security agents yet one commander in chief tells us they are gaddafi trained terrorist from Libya.

miyetti allah who have owned up to be responsible because of their cows killed are yet to be interrogated even after a sitting governor ordered for their arrrest . This is pure fulani agenda and they are getting away with it because their nepostic brother is in power

Does he have to visit Governor Ortom before he knows the real situation on ground?

This old cow should keep quiet... he was the one tht set the foundation for a wrecked nigeria. He introduced eery failed policy haunting us till date. State creation, overbloated civil service..had oil boom after the civil war....ddnt know wht to do with the funds instead introduced subsidies in eery sector even food, he hadnt built a dubai but was quick to go paying salaries of other countries ironically those countries are far better than us now. He ate our future.

so his eyes have finally opened....... gowon is a murderous asshole....he's mad!!!!! .... tell him I said so.

Will you keep kwayet and [/b]Go On With One Nigeria[b]

I blame Buhari for all these.

The major reason why the killings has continued unabated is simply because of his silence and refusal to personally condemn the killings. I'm not referring to press releases from Femi Adesina or Garba Shehu.

Let Buhari verbally and publicly condemn the Fulani herdsmen killings and read the riot acts to the killers and these senseless killings will grind to a halt within a short time and let's see whether the security agencies will not sit up and act decisively with those killers.

Until he does that, his silence can only mean consent, according to philosophy of communication.

Medicine.

No the security chiefs installed by Buhari are good, they're trying their best, they can never take sides.
Did Gowon not hear the killers are from Libya
At least they aren't trying to break the country like IPOB~ words of Yellowbar Muslim

Piss loving head slammers

I watched a video yesterday seeing more than fifty heavily armed men that looks like fulani....this people get better back up and that's why it's difficult to deal with them

The security agent under pmb can only deceive themselves but all Nigerians abt the killings. It’s obvious Miyetti allah are behind it.
Pmb believes so much in the fake security report he gets from the security chiefs.
Miyetti allah and the security chiefs are the same, they read same Quran, both worship in mosque, they’re both northerners, they’re both fulanis, they speak same language which is Hausa and they’re all jihadist.

Will you keep quiet. One of d death elder state man in middle belt.

Finally, he's spoken!

Gowon got the key to puzzles of fulanis involvement in Asaba spree during the civil war. Also, the issue of Bakasi Peninsula.

Especially the fulanis come herdsmen, Gowon is in the best position to end it.

Edit:

When the thing did not end in three weeks as he expected, he (Gowon) engaged mercenaries who came and fought, took their money and left. But Biafrans did not surrender. Then he was told that the Nigerian troops could take Port Harcourt, that so long as PortHarcourt was in Biafra land, Biafra will not cave in. To reach Port Harcourt, he apparently signed an agreement with the people of Cameroon that they should allow him access through Bakassi area to Port Harcourt and at the end of the war Cameroon should take Bakassi. That was done.
He signed that agreement as Nigeria signing away part of Biafran land while at that time Biafra was a sovereign state of its own recognised by some countries and Nigeria should have no legal right to sign away any part of its land. Notwithstanding, Biafra did not fall.
Gowon was said to have obliged to enlist help from Muslim soldiers from other West African countries where a good number of them came to help fight and decimated Biafra to bring it back to Nigeria. The condition for that service was that they would be allowed grazing rights all the way down Eastern Region, that was agreed.
And it appeared that looking back after the war, Cameroon claimed Bakassi and sacked natives of Bakassi who said they were Nigerians. Former President Olusegun Obasanjo as at that time took the case to the International Court of Justice (ICC) which ruled against Nigeria.
Similarly, Fulani herdsmen from neighbouring countries are of the assertion that based on the agreement with the Nigerian government during the civil war, they will graze their cattle at any place they want. And they now have the temerity to sack villages, communities and towns. And when they do, they just set up their homes and it appears that Buhari’s hands are tied because of that agreement allegedly signed by Gowon.

,

if you did not break aburi accord all this thing wont be happening now.










Enjoy your one niger area will it last.

Its unfortunate you are waking up this late

First TY Danjuma, then Obj, now Gowon. The generals are speaking, it would be foolhardy to think there is smoke without a fire.
My ppl say when a woman runs without holding her breasts, what is chasing her is bigger than her.

These guys will Do anything to stay in power. Election is near and suddenly buhari has found his voice. And this one has suddenly realised what is happening in benue.

Trying to look good. Why did you renegade on Aburi Accord?
