In the last few months, clashes
between Fulani herdsmen and locals in
southern Kaduna, have also led to
destruction of property.

NEMA is giving the figure weeks after a
religious group gave a higher figure.

The Catholic Church had earlier said
808 people were killed as of December
2016, a figure disputed by the
Inspector General of Police Ibrahim
Idris. Mr Idris did not however give a
contrary number.

The Catholic Church also said 1,422
houses, 16 Churches, 19 shops, and
one primary school were destroyed.

Premium Times quoted NEMA’s North
West zonal Coordinator, Musa Ilella, as
saying that the figure was for two Local
Government Areas where the attacks
have occurred – Kafanchan and Chikun
LGAs.

The figure covers October, November
and December, 2016 and early
January, 2017, he said.
“Four districts in Kafanchan LGA
namely: Linte ,Goska,Dangoma and
Kafanchan town recorded 194 deaths.

“Chikun LGA on the other hand
recorded about 10 deaths, making a
total of 204 so far,” he said.

Mr Ilella said there was no record of
any injured victim in the hospital.

Governor Nasir El-Rufai had said the
attackers were foreign Fulani
herdsmen , who were avenging past
attacks on them and their livestock.

The State and Federal Governments
have been accused of not doing
enough to end the killings.

In an effort to restore peace to the
area, the Nigerian government last
week announced the deployment of
anti-riot police and soldiers to Southern
Kaduna

On Friday, a peace committee led by
former Head of State, Abdulsalami
Abubakar , visited Kaduna State and
appealed to all aggrieved parties
affected in the violent attacks to
sheathe their swords and tolerate each
other for the interest of peace in the
state.

This will give credibility to statements that says that the killings were state sponsored

Govt can lie oooo.....





The church has its own records much more than the Nigerian Government.
SMH

When it comes to killings of innocent souls, Nigeria govt and its agency NEMA will never tell the truth. lying is the the most priceless assets she has gotten. Either 808 or 204, govt masterminded the killing.

Ok

What will government gain from killing southern Kaduna villagers?

Hell rufai sponsored the killing in southern Kaduna.For him to have come out to say he paid the fulani herdsmen to stop the killing is an indication that he paid them for carrying out a good job for him.

You are right

Really disturbing news, where were the police and the military when a group of people "Fulani were killing over 804 southern Kaduna "Christians" villagers.

Still wondering why is it that when someone killed a Hausa Fulani man the government is quick to deploy teams of armed forces to resture peace immediately. You won't even manage to kill 2 before the army get there. But why?

Its only in Nigeria were the death of people are counted like chickens, were the government will be so bold to count figures as if the life of an individual is not important.

Lalasticlala, Mydn44 and Co. But why hasn't this post hit the front page? You're now a bias moderators?

fg says 204 which means about 204 have been deducted

so in reality its 408killed
but fg says 204

we know how this plays
