[color=#006600][/color]Herdsmen or terrorists ?? Herdsmen or terrorists ??

So much violence in the society

Has he been arrested

This year its really hard being a Nigerian so many violence and killings. Quick recovery ma, but I doubt you're gonna use that hand again.

When will our people grow some balls and retaliate to these violent people.

Super story

This is not about fulani herdsmen. This is a mere case of Tit for Tat.
Both of them should be arrested cos she stabbed him first

He is lucky he was arrested and can still tell lies...he ought to have been used for ekpe festival...where as u cut a goat head once...his head should b dat goat head.

Ewu

The need for cattle tech 2.0 in Nigeria and lifestyle evolvement.

Afonjas, very cowardly backstabbing people. This kind of things can't happen in any part of Igboland most of all, Aba, we would kill all the fulanis in Igboland.

They are everywhere now

At least she can now easily tell people to "fúck off" without stress

I trust Aba. If justice isn't done in this case there will be reciprocal retaliation.

Typical flatnoid miscreants start trouble and play victim later..shioor, so they've started sharia by chopping off your fingers in aba a strong IPORN territory.
