Ancestral Attachment: Southern, Middle Belt Leaders Chide Femi Adesina.. by BeeBeeOoh(op): 5:41am On Jul 05, 2018

The Southern and Middle Belt Leaders Forum has vehemently protested the assertion by the Special Adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, that it would be better for those that were opposed to cattle ranching to provide lands than to die in the herdsmen’s attacks.

Adesina, while speaking on an African Independent Television (AIT) programme on Tuesday, had told the anti-ranching protesters that they would on lay claim to ancestral attachment when they were still alive.

Reacting to Adesina’s comments in a statement signed by Mr. Yinka Odumakin (South-west), Senator Bassey Henshaw (South-south), Prof Chigoziw Ogbu (South-east) and Isuwa Dogo (Middle Belt), the forum described Adeshina’s position as “scandalous, reckless, insensitive and vexatious.”

“The attention of Southern and Middle Belt Leaders Forum has been drawn to the scandalous, reckless, insensitive and vexatious statement credited to Mr. Femi Adesina, Special Adviser, Media to the President that all communities opposed to Federal Cattle Territories (FCT) misnamed ranches should choose between their lands and their lives.

“Ancestral attachment? You can only have ancestral attachment when you are alive. If you are taking about ancestral attachment, if you are dead how does the attachment matter?” said Adesina.

“We take this ludicrous declaration as a death sentence on all those who oppose the imperialist agenda of the federal government to grab lands from communities in Nigeria and hand over to herdsmen for their private business.

“Adesina is close to the heart of presidency to know why it has treated killer Fulani herdsmen with kid gloves in the last three years and the arrogance with which he spoke showed they now assume their foot soilders have terrorised us into submission .

“This death threat is coming after the president told the governor of Benue State in January to learn how to live with murderers, the Inspector General of Police saying the killers are Nigerians, the Defence Minister claiming that blockage of cattle routes is the reason the herdsmen are killing and the same Adesina telling us the killings done under Buhari in three years have not equalled the number of deaths that occurred under PDP,” the leaders stated.

According to the forum, Adeshina’s statement is a confirmation of their earlier charge that the role of the president and the duty the president owes to the terror herdsmen are in conflict, adding that there is greater allegiance to the cows than the country.
“If Adesina keeps his job in the next 24 hours, all doubt would be removed over the statement Gen. Theophilus Danjuma (rtd) made that there is a working relationship between the killers and the security forces,” they said.

I think the statement by Femi Adesina is too bad. That statement is more or less abetting the massacres carried out by the Fulani.

But I must say something at this time. The people who are Christians in the FG who know the Fulani are consciously wiping out people do not fear God,they are covering it up and even colluding with the Fulani head of government and head of armed forces to see that the masaccres continue. People like Pastor Osinbajo and Femi Adesina.

Too bad. God is not asleep.

Femi Adeshina is clearly a harbinger of death with all the stupid, senseless, irresponsible & satanic statement he have been issuing for this government.

Anybody wonder why they always use the Christains stooges among them to do the hatchet job Why not Lai-the lying legend, Garba Shehu,Bashir Ahmed or even the president himself?
Femi Adeshina should remember that the euphoria of being in the corridors of power is but a transient thing.

All well meaning Nigerians should demand the impeachment of buhari's terrorist govt, the mouth piece of Miyetti Allah terrorist group.
An incompetent terrorist govt that resorts to death threats and blackmail against Nigerians over their Ancestral Land must never be allowed to continue in power!

Well I'm still waiting for the presidency to come out and claim they were quoted out of context as usual. Recent statementsfrom the media team of president Buhari is utterly baffling, imagine you gon die if you don't release land for ranching that's a threat right there no . matter how subtle they put it or the sugar coating Mr femi Adesina gave it, it's a threat nonetheless. Gaskiya the system is totally wrong!!!!
