oga forget that struv.....if you like call for benue state to be invaded by every millitary men in Nigeria but fact is buhari is fulani and he still being the PON the fight against herdsmen can never be sincere

or u wana say you don't read topics on NL on how soilders even help herdsmen

I'm glad we are agreed that you don't know the difference between a curfew and a state of emergency.

My first question was why wouldn't the GOVERNMENT declare a state of emergency in Benue?

In case you missed social studies, Buhari doesn't constitute the GOVERNMENT of Nigeria.

The question I'd have expected from you is, can the National Assembly initiate the process?

Until everyone in Benue is killed in the systemic ethnic cleansing going on.

Are you living in Benue? Lemme guess, NO.

It's wonderful for you to sit in your shop in Aba and be mouthing that Benue does not need State of Emergency.

it's quite thrilling that you'd believe even in state of emergency the fight would be sincere

a fulani president would definitely give a fulani millitary governor or commander to fight against fulani herdsmen and you believe they would really flush Fulani herdsmen just like that

Why are you trying to change the goal post? What sources? Everything I wrote is in public domain

(1) You said the Benue state should arm a vigilante group to defend the people. I told you one has been set up by the Benue gov but the army and police has arrested it members. The police has also commenced mop up of firearms used by Rivers state vigilante (neighborhood watch) set up by Wike.

(2) Go and read the firearms act (1990). There is no provision for individual license to bear guns such as AK47. The president can issue a proclamation at any time to mop up both licensed and unlicensed firearms. Go and study the law
You have seen the level of carnage in Benue, how do you expect a vigilante armed with light weapons to repel the herdsmen attacks?
A deadly militant group has killed over 100 persons in less than a week and you are advocating for a vigilante to confront them?

Your support for PMB should not rob you of objective reasoning. A true patriot is one that owes loyalty to his country not to an individual, ideology or political party.
I would no longer respond to you.

You are still missing the point, the vigilantes that were disarmed, were their guns licensed? Yes or No?.... If their guns weren't licensed, then it means they were illegal weapons. That the vigilante group was setup by the governor, that isnt enough reason to just conclude that their arms were licensed. If a person in the position of the governor sincerely pushes to get those weapons licensed, it can be easily achieved; the governor is simply failing in his responsibilities and giving watery excuses. Ekiti has the cattle vigilantes, Borno has the civilian JTF, if the Benue government is serious, it can set up an armed vigilante group.

Of course civilians wouldn't be permitted to carry ak47s, those are reserved for armed forces. But even if the herdsmen are armed with some 47s, they are still foreigners in Benue and cannot understand the Benue forest terrain better than Benue people; a dedicated vigilante made up of Benue indigenes armed with even dane guns can chase away all Fulanis from the state.

Where is Paul Unongo the slave of the fulani. Shouldn't he be insulting Igbos as usual while his people get beheaded by the gambaris he loves so much?
