Yeah, I was there. I am the guy in blue/green kaftan spreading money in picture above. It was a sumptuous wedding ceremony.

Many Ochanja motor park retailers, many Ladipo car parts sellers, many Ariaria shoe makers - they were all there.

A CLUE TO GOV. OKOROCHA ON HOW TO LET HIS PALM UNIVERSITY BE IN PEACE IN OGBOKO.


Let Okorocha use part of the premises of Eastern Palm University as a campus for some faculties of Imo state University and leave the remaining IMSU faculties in Owerri.

With some faculties of IMSU sharing premises with Eastern Palm University, there shall be least moral force on people to question Okorocha's intentions.

There may be difficulties in legal process to differentiate between the premises of IMSU in Ogboko and premises of Eastern Palm University in the same Ogboko.

Reasons: at the beginning, the lands in Ideato now being used for Eastern Palm University were acquired on behalf of Imo state govt for Imo state University.


If Rochas - Azuanuka- fails to do this, and believes that everybody, except Rochas, is a fool, there is likelihood that Ogboko shall have neither Eastern Palm University nor parts of Imo state University.

Chibok Kidnap was all about having a northern Muslim take over Aso Rock. The rest is history.

Photos, or are they Unidentified Fccucking Objects?

SamuelAnyawu:
So the Villagers think Owerri zone will close their eyes and allow Rochas to move IMSU to Ideato.

MBANU

Owerri zone does not own Imo state University. Any determined governor can still easily remove IMSU from its present ugly site in Owerri. There are about five universities and Polytechnics in Owerri, added to the one Okorocha is building in Mbaise.

Blame Okorocha for changing to private university in Ogboko after Owerri zone had been quietened to let go the proposed transfer of IMSU to Ogboko. Deputy governor then from Owerri and other prominent people from Owerri had gone round telling Owerri people why IMSU should be transferred to Ogboko.

Why has IMSU known no peace since it started in its present site?.

Abagworo:
Eastern Palm University at advanced stage in Ideato South LGA.

It has taken about four years this Ogboko campus began to be built. A whooping number of four years building a university??

Evans Enwerem took less than three months to start IMSU in Owerri, despite opposition from Orlu then that IMSU must be located in ready facilities in Orlu then.


Even the university Okorocha government started two years ago in Mbaise seems to have advanced more than Ogboko.

Who is moved? Because Okorocha is known for delaying and abandoning projects he embarks on outside Owerri zone.

From Princess hotel Okigwe to Prince Hotel Orlu to School of Health technology and New stadium Orlu - none has seen completion after about five years.

This time, what sort of military pacts will Buhari sign with Britain for ONE Najeriyaaa

So long as crude oyel money flows from the off shores, Buhari's mind set is like: even if Nigerians are getting killed by either herds men/Boko Haram, or by lack of amenities like electricity, fuel, food, they must not rebel, rise against the government, because of fear that foreign countries with whom Buhari signed military pacts shall send in troops and arms to quell the uprising/rebellion.

Nigeria has no hostile neighbouing country, but since Buhari came to office, he has been signing more military pacts with nearly all neighbouring countries and other powerful countries of the world than make foreign countries help Nigeria overcome economic problems.

Gayigaskia:
You shouldn't be cause i didn't insult you

You mean civilians captured Boko Haram people?

Only the gullible ones are fooled.

ya people have gotten whatever you wanted with Boko - POLITICAL POWER SHIFT.
Therefore Boko is closing shops.

TheLegal:
He went to Kastina to reassure his people that they are still in control of Niger Delta Oil. this man is a full blown dullard. he refused to talk on the Fulani attacks.

He won't say anything about the way his brothers murder the same poeple they are forcing to remain together. Any Igbo man who is supporting one Nigeria is an efulefu- a pitiable nonentity.

Those one Nigeria efulefus of Igbo sef. Una sure say them heads de correct again?

SamuelAnyawu:
Most Banks dwelled on federal treasury/Oil money/Politicians loots

Yeah, most of Nigeria's banks thrive through stolen oyel money.

Banks normally make money through interest on mortgages and loans. Most Nigerian banks hardly engage in lending for mortgage or business.

FFK has been hitting hard against Fulani herds men in his recent articles.
He makes veiled threats of secession if the herds men continue.

The next days, FFK has corruption charges levelled against him.

FFK and Nnamdi Kanu don put legs for GMB's one Najeriya trousers.

So na you Buhari send come, abi?

rapistbuhari:
And what gave you the impression that i care for Nigeria's well being

LMAORTF!!! What a reply!

tonychrismba:
So na una vote that idiot into power?

Don't blame Buhari or those who voted him into power; blame Tinubu who boasts that he begged Buhari to come out from retirement to contest the last presidential election.
Before then, Buhari had publicly announced that he had retired from active politics, perhaps after examining himself and realizing that he was no more fit to preside over contemporary Nigeria.

E be like Katsina Emir had seen the handwriting on the wall that Nigeria is not gonna be for longer than..... hence before President Buhari, the only important thing the Emir voiced out was why the Niger River had not been dredged up to the north for bigger vessels.

Buhari then assured the Emir that no body would chase them out from the land they killed two million people to get one Nigeria for and enjoy the crude oil.

Reading the conversation, one would think that ordinary persons on the street were doing the conversation.
Reading the conversation, one would wonder if the supposed presidentv of a country had no speech writers.

In Katsina where Buhari literally declared a New War for ONE Najeriya..He told the Emir that they killed nearly two million people in order to enjoy the crude oil they are enjoying today.

Which constitution are they still amending? Buhari-Abacha-Abdusalam constitution.

Which country in the world has its constitution supervised by military dictators who hailed from one part of the country? None, except Nigeria.

Nigeria needs a new political structure and constitution made in a democracy. If not, na Araba go follow - disintegration.

The ugly witch behind the article.

The picture explains the venom.

But she described what she saw in Nigeria.
So what makes her qualify for an ugly witch?

All these Oyibo media sef. During the last presidential election campaign, they campaigned heavily for Buhari whom they called a no nonsense man.

Even two to three days to the election proper, CNN's Christian Amanpour of Iranian parentage staged a campaign for Buhari through a CNN Live talk-shop program with Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, the Emir of Kano. Both of them berated Jonathan government as the most unworthy.

Oyibo has gotten what they wanted: Nigeria's crude oil in their hands once their usually friendly northern leaders are in charge of Nigeria.

Oyibo has gotten what they wanted Nigeria to be: a country of suffer heads after the election, as this author described the suffering situstion in Nigeria here.

Life goes on for those who can survive the present conditions in Nigeria. Oyibo works like Mafioso. Zombies in Nigeria were fooled.

Waste of time by NY Times.

Even if Nigeria crumbles, flattened out and returned to the 18th Century, once crude oil money is being pumped on behalf of Nigeria's government from offshore near the Niger delta, the zombies if Nigeria do not get bothered.

The zombies must elect another zombie to rule them next presidential election.

Wow!!!! How foolish can some people get in this country, Somebody cornered your common patrimony that should have been used in bettering your pathetic lives. Yet some people are up in arms to defend a common thief. I give up on this country finally, y'all can forever remain in your pathetic condition.

.. and you don't know that you are most pathetic?

Issue is: between the man at the helm who ordered FFK's arrest and FFK himself, who is corruption-free?
FFK's ordeal now is most related to his incessant write-ups against Fulani herds men, as well as his thinly veiled separatist views in his recent articles.
In short, you may not understand, how can a zombie understand matters bordering on Nigeria's political under currents?

Wagasigiungu:
The Minister of Health, Prof. Isaac Adewole has declared that henceforth recruitment of staff for teaching hospitals will be done centrally by the Ministry of Health once in a year.
Adewole declared this while responding to a request made by the Chief Medical Director of the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital (UUTH) Prof. Etete Peters on Saturday when he visited the hospital.
Peters had told the minister that lack of funds had made it difficult to recruit 141 staff members approved by the Federal Government.
He said that lack of funds had prevented the hospital from recruiting staff, in spite of waiver granted to employ staff of various cadres mostly nurses and resident doctors.
Peters, who decried the shortage of staff in key specialties, sought the Minister’s permission to recruit consultants in Neurosurgery, Chemical Pathology, Dental Surgery, Endocrinology and Pathology.

“The hospital is currently facing dearth of staff following massive retirement of nurses and other staff.
“The challenges facing the hospital range from paucity of funds, inability to complete the ongoing infrastructural projects to the provision of more medical equipment,” the CMD said.
He listed uncompleted projects in the hospital to include Radiology Services Block, General Outpatients Block, Laboratory complex, School Block and Theatre Building.
Peters also complained that facilities in the 520 bed hospital were over-stretched and as such the hospital needed more funds for expansion projects.
Responding, the Minister promised to look into the 2016 budget for the hospital with a view to ensure the completion of the ongoing projects.
Adewole said that he would like to inaugurate the General Outpatients Building within the fiscal year so as to give the hospital enough space for Accident and Emergency Unit.
He commended the Akwa Ibom government for announcing the release of N100 million for the completion of the General Outpatients Building out of the N150 million required.
The minister commended the CMD for maintaining services in the hospital in the face of lean resources and called for improvement.
He said that the 2016 budget was very tight and promised that more things would be achieved for the hospital in 2017 budget.
Adewole said that the recruitment of house officers in Teaching Hospitals would be done centrally from the Federal Ministry of Health once in a year. – The News.


http://thecitizenng.com/governance/fg-takes-over-recruitment-duties-from-teaching-hospitals/

Health practice should be uniformly made in Nigeria.

Let the federal government also take over recruitment of staff in the state university teaching hospitals, else, they end up producing sub-standard medical practitioners.

Besides, some state governors play dirty politics with the state teaching hospitals located in areas of their state which they don't like. They marginalize such hospitals.
Let the federal government forestall this by taking over recruitment of staff in state university teaching hospitals also.

Governor Okorocha says he is not contesting for presidency in 2019.

Information from grapevine has it that Rochas Okorocha shall contest for Senate in 2019.

@Abagworo,

is Rocha going to contest for Owerri Senate seat or where?

Methinks, Rochas can only win Owerri Senate seat if the election is conducted today.

@Abagworo,
That Amaigbo road you show with red mud in 2011....
Between 2002 to 2008; that Amaigbo road in Orlu was glittering, new, black, asphalted, as it was newly reconstructed then.

Message? Roads don't last long as development

Bringjng Development at a place is bringing what can generate money and population in a place; as such development projects are littered by governmens in every space in Owerri and its environs.

A saner governor must have diversion of government development projects to other areas in Imo state outside Owerri zone now, not this government worsening the situation by locating nearly all government development infrastructure it has ever conceived in Owerri zone.

Is our governor heartless?

All soil around the St Joseph Catholic Church at the centre of Orlu has become wetter and wetter since 2012 when Okorocha government moved earth near the church, as the governor said he was building a road from this church to International Market. The road was scrapped through but never completed.

If the St Joseph church collapses and kills worshippers inside, may Okorocha the governor still be celebrating Owerri projects - bridges, flyover, ecumenical centre, bypass roads, heroes square, bongo square, freedom square, Akachi towers, name them; while the people in Orlu mourn?. 50% of peasants in Orlu come from Okorocha's two Ideatos.

Cost of completing Orlu urban drainage gutter started by Okorocha's predecessor may be twenty times less than what Okorocha used in building one lane of the Owerri fly over.


If Okoro is losing what being a state governor means, can't people close to him tell him that he is not getting it so far?

Owelle is too much in Owerri. Wallahi.

Abeg, make this good Owelle no allow St Joseph Catholic Church in Orlu collapse. The whole surroundings of the church are now fully wet and soft.

Complete common gutter started by previous Imo government to collect rain floods into a valley.
Save this church. Avoid possibility of collapse with worshippers inside.

Lol,
One day Fulani go block this Nigeria from making any movement until what Fulani wants is done.

Nigerians were most crazy when they elected Buhari president of Nigeria.

Buhari is the most unrepentant proponent of Fulani religious expansionism and nationalism alive.

The first places Buhari visited after becoming president of Nigeria were Chad and Niger Republics where his fellow Fulanis are in very large numbers.


Lack of proper information for the masses made Nigerians vote Buhari president.

Buhari, Tinubu and Oyegun - old and outdated men in charge of Nigeria in the 21st century. What do we expect? Talk about West Germany and President Merkel.

In a normal country, none of these three would be wielding the powers they now have. Age would have made three of them retire from politics and leave political leadership for younger people.

Barely-educated Cattle breeder is ruling Nigeria now.
The cattle rearers know that. So they intimidate Nigerians anyhow.

Cattle is reared in ranches, NOT in wandering style like the Fulani do in Nigeria.

Those SMILING ONES who elected Buhari president brought tale of woes to Nigerians.

ericuzor:
Alhaji Mohammed Nuru Abdullahi, the Chairman of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association in Plateau State, in this interview with JUDE OWUAMANAM, says Fulani herdsmen are angry with President Muhammadu Buhari because rustling of cattle and killing of their members have increased under his watch contrary to public accusations that the President has been protecting them and encouraging attacks on farmers

Why is it that Fulani herdsmen are usually connected to killings and attacks in any part of the country when herders and farmers are involved?

This issue of killing is something serious in this country but before I answer your question, I will use this medium to warn politicians that they should stop politics of hatred, bias and propaganda. This is because I was made to understand that these politicians are using these as weapon to achieve their political careers. So that is why I’m using this medium to warn them. Now back to your question. Why are Fulani herdsmen always accused of carrying out killings in the country? That is what they have been saying but if you look at it from the Fulani perspective, the question to ask is: why are they carrying out attacks against other communities? Or what is the real cause of this problem? What are the immediate and remote causes of these killings? You know in this country, Fulani do not have any security back up because they are in the rural areas where the security operatives may not go to. Now cattle rustling and killing of Fulani have become a lucrative business. Therefore, Fulani herdsmen will do everything possible to protect their lives and property themselves since government has failed to do so. I believe that is why we are having problems here and there with Fulani. What is baffling me is when Fulani are killed and their animals are rustled, you won’t hear about that one; nobody will say it in the media, including government officials and security agencies. But when Fulani fight the cattle rustlers and kill maybe one, two or three of the rustlers, you will hear that herdsmen are killing people. I read a caption today in a newspaper about herdsmen killings and it baffles us very much, so we deem it necessary to come out and say what we want to say in public. Government should do the job it is supposed to do.

Why are you blaming politicians for these killings?

We blame politicians because by their actions and utterances, they inflame these clashes between Fulani herdsmen and farmers. Take the Agatu scenario in Benue State as an example, where we lost many lives and property were destroyed. People have made a lot of comments and blamed Fulani herdsmen. For example, some politicians from the state and the South South governors have said that they are giving Fulani quit notice and spreading propaganda that the Fulani are moving with AK 47 rifles. In Plateau State, when there were crises, who were the accused and who were the defendants? Government officials bought guns for their relatives to defend themselves. How do you think a Fulani man will be happy about that? The government and the security are not protecting them and politicians are busy conniving with others to achieve their aims. Especially if they realise that they will not win an election, they will resort to the use of religious and ethnic sentiments. These are the causes of these problems and that is why we are blaming the politicians.

People say that Fulani hardly forgive whoever offends them even after many years. Can we say that they are killing people in their host communities now to avenge the killing of their cattle and so on?

It is not true. It is just an allegation and an attempt to blackmail the Fulani people. But let me tell you, the common trait in the Fulani man is that he will not forget an offence but he will quickly forgive. For instance, if I kill your father and mother, you will not forget but you will forgive, that is a Fulani man. All these notions are not true; they are just being created to convince people to blackmail Fulani and tell the whole world that Fulani people are terrorists.

If Fulani herdsmen are not terrorists and are not hostile, why do they go about with AK47 rifles. Or is it one of the paraphernalia of breeding cows?

Is it only Fulani people that are carrying AK47 rifles in Nigeria? The rustlers of their cows, what are they using in rustling the cattle? Is it by using bare hands? The Fulani use the AK47s for defence since the government has failed to protect them.

But is it not illegal for them to have such heavy weapons when they are just taking care of cows?

It is illegal but when the government fails, everybody takes the law into his hands. When the government is ready to do the right thing, everybody will support it, but when it is bias and lopsided and injustice reigns supreme, then that government is in danger. Here on the Plateau, over one million guns can be collected in only three local governments and people are accusing only Fulani. We are appealing to the government to take proper action and organise a security team to protect the Fulani.

What measures are you putting in place to ensure that rustlers do not mingle with genuine herdsmen and cause havoc that you have said that herdsmen are being blamed for?

Rustling is an act of criminality and we don’t condone it in any way. Let me give you an example using Plateau State, where I know very well. I will use the example of Fan and Foron Districts in Barkin Ladi Local Government Area. More than 10,000 heads of cattle have been rustled in those areas and they are areas Fulani are restricted. We took our time to beg the security agencies to help us reclaim our cattle, but they refused. For me, I know who rustled my cattle because I have been with them for a very long time. If I narrowly escape such attacks and go in search of my cows, then problem will ensue. The rustlers will deny us access to those areas to reclaim our cows and nobody will come to our assistance. I know the whereabouts of my cattle but if we decide to go and bring them, then that is where problems ensue. Then we will resort to self help because you cannot just allow somebody to reap the fruit of your sweat. Government and security agencies should do well to stamp out cattle rustling. They should put up measures to ensure those who rustle cows are apprehended and given adequate punishment to serve as deterrent.

There is the feeling that these killings and attacks are becoming more frequent now that we have a Fulani President, who also owns cattle. Is it true that you feel protected by the government in power?

Well, people are entitled to their opinions. But what you must understand is that those crises started even before Buhari became the President. He inherited it from the previous administration. If you say that since he became president, the attacks have increased, what do you say of Plateau? Why have the attacks decreased instead of increasing in Plateau? Since he became the President, the attacks in Plateau have reduced to zero level and Mr. President is doing his best to end the crisis. If you listen to the order he gave to the security personnel to fish out and arrest the perpetrators of the Enugu killings, then you will realise that he is not taking sides.

But the victims and Christian leaders insist that Buhari is backing you and even one of you has said that you now get the backing of the President. Is this true?

How, where and when? Did President Buhari meet with Fulani and assign them to go and kill? Instead of backing us, we the Fulani are now accusing Buhari of allowing other ethnic groups to continue to rustle our cattle and kill our people, but the media have not been reporting the stories. He does not care about us and if things don’t change, we will fight him back because he is not helping matters to stop the killing of Fulani people and their cattle.

Some militant groups from the South have issued warnings to Fulani herdsmen to keep off the zone in their own interests. Do you feel safe grazing in the southern part of the country with these threats?

The threats are dangerous trends and they should never contemplate it, let alone talk of issuing such threats. And if as you said, they have issued threats, I will suggest that they should never continue with such threats and also withdraw the ones they have issued because a Fulani man is a Nigerian and has the right to go on with his business lawfully without any disturbance. What we are saying is that any criminal among them should be fished out and dealt with according to the laws of the land. Anyone of them that is a criminal, even if he is my son, should be arrested and dealt with. Let him face the wrath of the law. If you ask Fulani not to graze in the South, then you are telling the Igbo and other ethnic groups to also leave northern Nigeria? If we do that, then we have violated the constitution of Nigeria. We should be careful not to jeopardise the unity of Nigeria by our actions and utterances because it could be dangerous.

Some people are saying that some of these miscreants who commit the crimes come from neighbouring countries, but with the active support and encouragement from the local Fulani population. Is this true?

Is the controlling of our borders the function of the Fulani? Fulani people are not in charge of the control of our borders. Let me give you example of the situation in the Northern Plateau. They killed the inhabitant Fulani people and drove some of them away. When a foreigner comes, how will you identify him? The Fulani that were with you could help you identify them but since you chased them away, how would you do that? So the criminals will come, hide under the guise of Fulani, commit the crimes and go away, then they will leave the innocent people with the problem. So what advice am I giving? Let’s bring these Fulani people closer to us; let’s embrace them. Let’s give them constitutional rights. In Plateau today, I have collected over 150 forms from Fulani boys that want to join the Nigeria Police Force but the major problem is they don’t have certificates to prove they are indigenes. Like in my case, I have but they refused to issue indigeneship certificates to my children.

Don’t you think the solution to the problem is for the government to establish ranches so that the killings and clashes with farmers will stop?

Who is not buying that idea? The establishment of ranches is a welcome development. Let me tell you, Fulani are divided into two categories. There are Town Fulani and Nomadic Fulani. The Town Fulani are already settled. Let me give an example, using Plateau State again which I know well. There were Fulani people who settled here since time immemorial. Their forefathers were buried in Plateau State. Some inherited lands, some purchased it but they were all driven away. We want the government to start issuing Certificates of Occupancy to people, develop the land and assist the Fulani to modernise their business of cattle rearing and the industry will do better than the oil industry in the Nigerian economy. In 1965, there were a lot of grazing reserves allocated to the Fulani in the northern part of the country. For example, in Plateau State, we had eight reserves allocated to grazing. But today, it is only one that is functional. If you go to Wase Grazing Reserve, it has been encroached by farmers. Just recently, a Fulani boy was attacked by a local because he wanted to use the dam and feed his cows. But the farmer told the boy not to use the water. He insisted and the farmer harmed him with a machete and the boy is still receiving treatment in a hospital in Wase.

After all is said and done, what do you think we can do to stop these killings because they are going out of hand and becoming a national crisis?

For more than half a year now, there has been no attack in Plateau, so that is the result of the work we are doing and I want to sell the idea to other stakeholders. When I came into power as the Chairman of Miyetti Allah, I tried to put five people together and work for peace. First, I went to the government and begged that it should help in ensuring that there was peaceful co-existence.

Second, let the security agencies come on board and pursue peace. Third, the community leaders should be involved. Four, the religious leaders should be involved. Lastly, the opinion leaders must be involved. When I say opinion leaders, you the press men are involved. Let all of us come on board and discuss peace. When I assumed office, there was crisis, chaos and killings here and there. Now, I have set up committees to investigate the remote and immediate causes of the problem. We discovered that most of these crises are as a result of criminal activities and these criminals cut across the ethnic groups. There are Fulani, Berom, Nga, Igbo, Hausa, etc.

We have to first look at ourselves and organise sensitisation programmes. I was in Ganawuri in Riyom Local Government Area for a sensitisation programme. We gathered all the Fulani around that area and discussed with them. What impressed me was that the Aten people, who are Christians, used the Mosque and we preached in Hausa language, not Fulfulde so that they would understand. We did it successfully and also paid a courtesy call to the paramount ruler of the Atah Aten. He had invited the stakeholders, including a former minister, Damishi Sango. We brainstormed. After that, the next stage is to organise symposiums, retreats, workshops and so on. We collaborate with religious organisations like Jama’atu Nasril Islam and Jama’atu Izatil Bid’ah Wa Iqamatus Sunnah. The security agencies themselves should do the same. We have had series of such workshops organised by the Special Task Force and the outcome of the deliberation have been very successful and rewarding. Peace is always government-driven because government has the resources and the personnel; government should not stay aloof. They should come out and ensure that people live in peace. Again, we must ensure that there is justice and equity. These are panacea to peace and peaceful co-existence.

Is it true that Fulani herdsmen value cattle more than human lives as some people say?

It is very absurd to say that we value the lives of animals more than human beings. These are food that God gave us to eat. So how can we value what we eat more than our own lives? As I have said, this just shows how the Fulani man has been stereotyped to paint him in bad light.

Is it true then what some people say that there is a conspiracy by northern elite to use Fulani herdsmen to kill southerners, take control of their land and islamise them?

There is no conspiracy anywhere. As I have said, killing of another human being is a criminal act and anybody who kills in whatever form or guise must face the full weight of the law. To say that it is a grand conspiracy is also to say that President Muhammadu Buhari is in support of the killings because he is a Fulani as people have also been insinuating. In this war, who is Islamising who, where and how? People should not be deceived by all this propaganda. Nigeria is a nation created by certain principles and law and we have agreed to live together by consensus. Nobody forced us to live together, so nobody can force any religion on you except you willingly decide to practise any religion of your choice. Please nobody is Islamising anybody. It is all propaganda.

But with the way Fulani herdsmen have been going about killing people, some Nigerians say that everything points in that direction with the impunity with which the Fulani herdsmen behave. What do you think?

Impunity from which side? From the Fulani herdsmen or from the farmers? Both sides are involved in the killing and both of them could be said to be committing impunity. Fulani kill the farmers and the farmers kill the Fulani. The fact is that we should do everything possible to stop the killings from whichever side.

For instance, where do Fulani herdsmen get the guns they go about with these days?

You can equally ask the farmers where they are getting their own guns from. This is purely the fault of the government. When government cannot defend the citizens, they are forced to seek help elsewhere. Guns are traded in the open market and with the country’s porous borders; anybody can buy an AK 47 across the border. So it is futile to ask where they are getting the guns from.

In all honesty, is it fair to go to someone’s land, destroy his farms that he has laboured on and spent time and money to cultivate and then kill him and his people when he complains?

There is a standing rule. If a Fulani man allows his cattle to enter a farm and destroys it, he is made to pay for the crops destroyed. We find the Fulani man and assess the extent of damage and he pays. But if the farmer takes law into his hands and decides to kill the Fulani and there is reprisal, who is to blame? The farmer whose farm is destroyed should channel his grievances to the appropriate quarters. It will be investigated and justice will take the natural cause.

So far, people have been disappointed that your organisation has been defending the activities of the Fulani herdsmen instead of condemning them. Why is that?

It is not true that we have been defending the Fulani for the killings. We have always held that killing is a criminal activity and that anybody who kills must face the full wrath of the law. But we must defend the Fulani when they are killed or attacked.

Then why are you always quick to condemn the activities of cattle rustlers who steal cattle but slow to react when herdsmen kill people in cold blood like the case in Enugu and Agatu, Benue State?

We condemn cattle rustling and we condemn killings because both are criminal acts. I will condemn the Fulani when they go wrong and defend them when they are wronged.

Fulani cattle people have vast lands in the north of Nigeria to produce all the meat and milk Africa needs.

What are Fulani cattle people wandering about for with cattle in the most densely populated south of Nigeria, if not to export their Wahaabi brand of Muslim religion to the south?

People don't have enough land to live in in the south, talk less for cattle grazing fields.

Through far northern Nigeria leaders adopting sharia criminal laws and follow up Boko Haram, most of the southern people living in the north were chased back to the south.

Except Lugard that merged the present south and present parasitic north of Nigeria, no relationship whatsoever existed between the two groups.

Up till now, hardly any relationship exists between the two groups except the deadly/paralyzing ontraption called Nigeria.

DropShot:
PMB has done well in fighting BH insurgency and stemming the tide of corruption.

With the signing of the Administration's first own budget, we expect the Change to start manifesting.

And once that happens, children of hate still mourning their last election loss won't have much to wail and mourn about.

Then, 2019 will be secured for the General with or without the wailers' support.

.... and you don't understand that you are most hate-filled person here, because no body above you motivated this your hate-filled comment.

Your uncles and fathers used hate and religious bigotry as criterion to restructure Nigeria politically and thus created the present parasitic political structure that has arrested Nigeria's development.

Boko Haram is closing shops after getting the northern Muslim president for Nigeria which was why Boko Haram was formed.

Abeg, make this people know that they are only fooling themselves with all these stories of surrender or arrest of Boko Haram people.
