It is obvious that we don't have Security in Nigeria. Lastly Fulani Herdsmen should please stop all these attacks in the peaceful East. Enough is enough!!!

Fantastic!

But when will UGM and IPOB start using missiles and bombs!

Seem they dont have sophisticated weapons. By now, they should have started bombing every government parastatal and lauching missiles into worship centers, shopping complexes, schools and campuses.

This way, Buhari will be fvcking pained.
