Middle Belt Forum Blasts Buhari, Hails Governor Ortom's courage by nairalandankrah(op): 5:21pm On Apr 30, 2021
RUGA Can't Bring Peace, It'll Only Worsen Nigeria's Insecurity — Middle Belt Forum Backs Governor..

The Middle Belt Forum has shown its support for the Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom, over his stance against the rural grazing area initiative introduced by the Federal Government.

In an interview with SaharaReporters on Friday, the spokesman for the forum, Inuwa Dogo, said the Middle Belt is strongly against RUGA as it will only worsen the security situation.

He said, “We don't believe in RUGA, if they are killing so as to take the land of the people, then the people should not accept and in the middle belt, we completely reject anything of that nature. They believe if they kill people, then there will be no other alternative than to accept whatever they want which will not happen.

“There is no part of the country that it will not reach. No place is safe. RUGA will only make the security situation worse because they will be nearer and entrenched and kill and kill until they take over everywhere. Any community that thinks RUGA is the solution is deceiving itself because RUGA is not and will not be the solution.

“RUGA will only make the situation worse and we stand by the side of Ortom and all the other Middle Belt states, they must never cave in to RUGA. Everybody sitting down thinking there is any Federal Government policy that will save us is deceiving himself. RUGA will not save us, it will only make the security situation worse. We are totally against it.”

According to him, Benue state already had an existing law which had phased out open grazing.

Amid the recent killings in the state, the governor had accused the president of working for the Fulani tribe to take over Nigeria.

Ortom Only Sees Problems Of Others, Not His, Presidency Reacts To Governor’s Allegations Against Buhari

Ortom, who decried the incessant killing of people in the state by suspected Fulani herdsmen, confirmed that 70 people were killed in three local government areas of the state — Makurdi, Guma and Gwer West

“As Nigerians, we accuse colonial rulers of the policy of divide and rule.

“Today, it is our leaders who pit region against region, religion against religion, ethnic group against ethnic group, and community against community,” the statement added.

The truth is already out, and it is simply that the Benue people are in a battle against Fulani terrorists with backing from the villa.

Is short, the killing is about cattle.

Before, when a man dies in Nigeria, cow is killed for the dead man
Nowadays, when a cow dies in Nigeria, human beings are killed for the cow.

Middle Belt should break out from Arewa and Northern Governors Forum. That is the first step for emancipation from Fulani caliphate.

The earlier the Middle Belt form a strong alliance with Biafran the better for them.

Nigeria will remain in history books as a nation destroyed by the land grabbing quest of the Futa Jallons and their greed against Indigenous People. I have never seen where a tenant is more powerful than a landlord

How can a whole president of the most populated black nation be so nepotic and sectional?

Garba-shehu's Reply for Mr. PRESIDENT lacks FEELINGS, THINKINGS AND REASONINGS. IT'S FULL OF MANY ERRORS.

That's BUHARINOMICS, BUHARISOCIAL AND BUHARIPOLITICS.
