Kwara Govt Confirms Nabbed Armed Men Are Miyetti Allah Members From NSA Ribadu-Led Security Operation

The Kwara State Government has clarified that the armed men recently apprehended by soldiers in the state, initially believed to be bandits, are members of Miyetti Allah participating in a federal security operation coordinated through the Office of the National Security Adviser.

The clarification comes in the wake of public concern following reports by SaharaReporters that Nigerian soldiers intercepted a group of armed individuals carrying AK-47 rifles while patrolling in a security vehicle in Ifelodun Local Government Area.

The suspects claimed that they were sponsored by the ‘Ilorin government,’ a development that sparked public anger and renewed fears over insecurity in the state.

SaharaReporters had earlier reported that residents strongly opposed an alleged plan by the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, to deploy armed Fulani herders, popularly known as Bororos, to combat banditry in Kwara.

They criticized the government for empowering herders allegedly responsible for violence while sidelining indigenous security actors.

However, when contacted by SaharaReporters, the National President of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN), Alhaji Baba Usman-Ngelzarma, dismissed claims that the association or its members had been armed to fight in Kwara.

He described reports of the deployment of armed herders as propaganda and emphasized that Miyetti Allah collaborates with security agencies to promote peace without carrying arms.

Similarly, the National Secretary of Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, Saleh Alhassan, denied any involvement in arming herders or participating in violence, attributing insecurity in the state to criminal gangs, jihadist groups, and poor governance rather than the herders themselves.

He urged adherence to due process, lawful arrests, and fair trials as the only path to lasting stability.

Federal Government should approve state Police department and every single state manage their own State....

Hehhh !

Nigeria!

This NSA seems to have his name called in every thing evil bedevilling the country.


While the subnationals can not arm their security outfits with high velocity weapons, here we have an NSA allegedly handing high grade weapons and vehicles to his kith and kins.

Some occurrences in this country is just beyond human compression!

Are they saying that the NSA now has armed militia fighting bandits in the forest without the knowledge of the Kwara state government?

Kwara State has leadership problems

The terrorists and there sponsors are in Aso rock .

Can you imagine. When the say the insecurity has direct hands of the government some people will call it lie. What's all these now

Na waooo.. this Na serous matters

Na wah for dis mata o! See confusion wey full everywhere about dis armed men wey soldiers catch for Kwara. Government dey talk say na Miyetti Allah members wey National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, send for security work, but di head of Miyetti Allah kom dey deny say dem no send any of dia members to carry gun or fight bandits. Di whole matter dey cause plenty wahala and fear because people no want make dem give herders wey dem dey accuse for violence before now gun to dey guard area. Who wey go know wetin dey tru? E just dey like say everybody dey do wettin dey like

The way the Muslim north is interested in the security of this country is a thing of great concern. Remember that during the presidential political campaign, the then Vice Presidential candidate, Shettima declared that he is going to be in charge of security when we have the president. Now, Ribadu is now behind the terrorists in Kwara. Matawalle issues have not yet been settled. When Government gets ready to fight terrorism, we shall know. But for now, it is paddy paddy.

We said it, that snakes have hands in the belly. May God protect the vulnerable.

The Fulani Army/Defense structure has given them something to use as cover if ever caught in action. Can the NSA provide a list of all such Miyetti Allah members from the NSA?
How were they selected and vetted?
Is such act backed by law?

Amotekun is by state govt but this tribal formation is different.

I think I blame the Army for arresting them instead of rocking them to sleep. How can the NSA sending armed men to a state without the consent of the governor and also the Army in charge of the state/area.

No comment

Imagine this same NSA is the man in charge of the armed forces of a nation. God what kind of country is this for goodness sake.

Kwara is gone

"on your mandate we shall stand"

In other words, members of Tinubu's govt are sponsoring genocide against Christians in Nigeria. They will surely pay for the lives of those slain by fulani terrorists jihadist.

Let me head to Twitter and twit this news to American govt officials.

The "IT WILL FAVOR ME AND MY FAMILY" laptop crew have died a natural death.

Abacha said before his demise. Any insurgency that last for 24hrs government knows about it.

This people are all terrorist only time will tell

We know the truth, we know the tricks, we know what we are doing, when we are all ready, we all will do the right thing. For now, let us all be playing the ostrich.
Give a snake good name so as to allow it to go.
We're getting there

Tinubu is fast becoming a dunce o! So the person responsible for insecurity is right under your nose, and you don't know.

Are there no indigenes in the local government you can arm to fight bandits? While arming Brororo in a state mostly occupied by Yorubas and Nupes? Do you want to use your position as the head of Nigeria's security, to grab land away from indigenes and hand over to armed Bororos?

Omo, things dey go on under the president and he doesn't know what's up..

Ribadu, a Fulaman, arming Fula bandits to fight Fula bandits! Wonder shall never end in Nigeria.

Why did Tinubu give the sensitive position to a Fulaman, knowing full well that his kinsmen are the ones behind insecurity in this country.

I know Seun will take down this post as he's been threatened by Ribadu, or bought over bandits.

The president gave that sensitive position to him because of his agreement with the radical Islamic brotherhood.
Alot dey sup for this country.

Just like that. They were thesane people chanting sai darling daddy

....worst still,as of when did govt approve the use of AK47 by vigilante and civilian security groups. The same govt subjected our vigilantes to pump actions at most,so why will the so called Fulani bororo guys be given an approval from the NSA to use AK47.
If they allow hunters,vigilantes etc to use AK47,it will be a 'balance of terror',these privilege bandits cum terrorists will be tamed to an extend.

Who approved this operation? How can a sensitive operation as be going on without anyone informing Nigerians? What is really going on...a lot is really going on in this country walahi.

This is a very (Danjalos in prophet indaboski bahose voice) allegations. People have been calling for his resignation 🤷🏿.

Why should miyetti Allah be securing Kwara forests?
What happened to Kwara residents?
Ribadu should be careful before his image gets tarnished permanently
I seriously don’t think a Fulani man should oversee a Fulani problem. That’s the more reason I don’t think Atiku may win another election again

When this was to start, they invited me the Fulani militia to "protect" Kwara people from other Fulanis. So, the first thing the security agents did was to collect all Dane guns and pump action guns from the indigenous security men.

After this, the Kwara church attack occurred.

These people have finishes us. Miyetti Allah people being bored by the NSA to secure people's lives against their fellow men? Hah! How we got to this point is what I find difficult to understand.
We have been mumunised long ago. Hah! What did I just read? Hahhhhhhhh
