I am writing this with pain in my heart. The Kuteb people of southern Taraba whose main source of livelihood is farming have been under constant attack by herders, and people are being murdered everyday, little, promising children stranded, turned to orphans if not killed. The Governor has denied that anything of such is happening, because of mare tribalism.
Security forces are doing nothing about it.
Is it a crime to farm in the our own land?
Is it a crime to be a Nigerian?
Is this what the President took an oath of office for?
Please endeavour to share!

I wonder when killing would be put to a stop. People forget what goes around comes around.Greed, envy and pure wickedness is the through cause of killing.

Honestly, I don't know the type of leaders we have in Nigeria. Soldiers will only show up after the did has been done. To make it worse, where the perpetrators come from is known, but nothing. They killed a commanding officer last time, nothing was done.

Information doesn't circulate in this country. A good percentage of our population is rural and semi rural so it's hard to hear their voices. Op can you please shed more light on the matter.

Herders do invade the Kuteb communities in the southern part of Taraba State almost everyday. They attack the Kuteb farmers, kill them, render many homeless for reasons best known to them(herders). It's not as if they have a common boundary and fighting over its demarcation. The worst is, where all this is happening is Where Ada barracks housing the 93 battalion is situated in Takum Local Government Area of Taraba state. But no action is taken by the security forces, displaced persons are even prevent from entering into the barracks to seek refuge...Things are happening.
seun, mynd44, Dominique, please do the needful.
