South-West under foreign herdsmen’s invasion – Ex-DMI boss


A former Director of the Directorate of Military Intelligence, Col. Kunle Togun (retd.), has raised the alarm that the South-West has been invaded by Fulani herdsmen from Mali, Burkina Faso, Senegal and other West African countries.

Togun also said it was unfortunate that some people were playing politics with security issues.

Speaking in an interview with SUNDAY PUNCH on Saturday, Togun said, “The Yoruba nation is under invasion and that is a fact. The entire Yorubaland has been invaded by these herdsmen and unfortunately, some people are supporting this because of political considerations.”


He accused some traditional rulers of selling land to the foreign herders in the Oke-Ogun area of Oyo State.

He said the herdsmen were able to perpetrate criminal activities because they had studied the topography of the area and the psychology of the people.

He warned that selling land to them would continue to put the Yoruba people and their generations in danger.

Togun said, “Some people including traditional rulers take cows from these Fulani and settle them here. This has been happening in Oke-Ogun. They graze on people’s farms and kill anyone who complains.


“We were told that there is an Oba in Atisbo Local Government Area and that these foreigners went to him with money and cows, asking him to give them land but he turned down the offer. They later went to another monarch, who collected the money and cows and he gave them land.

“These herdsmen now kill the native Fulani and rustle their cows; they rape their wives. These people are Fulani from Guinea, Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger. They come here to own Nigerian land. How can the inheritance of our future generation be given to foreigners? The whole of Oke-Ogun and Ibarapa have been invaded; the entire Yorubaland has been invaded. They have brought their youths, who are now commercial motorcyclists in Lagos. They sell carrots, fruits and all that.


“There is no village, town and city in Yorubaland that these people have not invaded and in the evening, you see the people gathering together. If there is any problem, these youths are their foot-soldiers. They have studied our topography; they have studied our movements and they know everything.”

Togun said he predicted the current situation in December 2014 when he was invited to deliver a lecture by the Development Agenda for Western Nigeria but that no action was taken on it.


“Nigerians are not security-conscious people but the worst are the Yoruba. Some are looking at the issue from religious and political views. It is unfortunate that foreigners from Mali, from Niger, from Guinea and other now own land in Nigeria,” he added.

Like I've said in previous threads, these Fulani's are not Nigerians. The only reason our government has failed to take drastic action against them is because of the religion and tribal sentiments they share amongst each other.
So the Nigerian government is indirectly telling its citizens that they'd rather side with illegal immigrants rather than their own citizens.
There's no other country in the world where you find illegal immigrants killing with so much impunity and they are still being rewarded by the government, even the US and other European countries where illegal immigrants take the lowest of jobs, yet they are still deported....but here, our government want to reward them with lands for killing us.

At the bolded..That is whom Buhari is.
Buhari will never change.. Remember in 80's when Buhari voted infavour of another Fulani Muslim man from another country against Mr Onu who's an Igbo man from Nigeria that contested for the same position at A.U
The world was shocked at Buhari's action that day.
Today, history is repeating itself.
I have said this several times and I will say it again....
Buhari is not a Nationalist like Ekwueme, Obasanjo or Jonathan.. Buhari is an ethnic and a religious bigot.
To him, his ethnic or religious interest supersedes that of National or Party interest.
Don't be surprised that it's easier for Buhari to hand over power to another fanatical Fulani Muslim irrespective of the person's political affiliations than to give power to someone he considers as a lesser human being.

Remember that he removed Kemi Adeosun and replaced her with his own Fulani sister. Does it mean that nobody is qualified from Ogun state to head such ministry or from SW entirely?
What happened to Ogun state ministerial slot?
This alone will tell you that Buhari is ready to twist the constitution or any procedure just to satisfy his ethnic interest.

Yes we know and our useless greedy rulers with the support of some brainwashed elements want the President slot in 2023.

So, they agreed in principle to the bloodletting, destruction, rape, & increase in insecurity across SW just because of the 2023 slot reason they agreed by voting the BLOODY NEXT LEVEL.

They will ALL not escape the calamities.

I'm a Yoruba person
This op has a problem
But on a serious note
i feel some Yoruba ppl are letting these Fulani into d south west
And it's strange that these Fulani don't operate on d mainly Muslim region of Yoruba land
I'm talking about Iwo ede oke Ogun
Akure ife ijesha ondo ekiti region with the largest population of Yoruba Christians is where these ppl are active
I personally feel there are some Yoruba ppl allowing these ppl into Yoruba land
Like I said,this is just a theory
im a Yoruba person and proud,and I know Yorubas very well
I will say it again,it is not far fetched that some Yorubas especially some big alhajis and Islamic fanatic I know are supporting this Fulani

Did u all read where they said a Yoruba oba sold land in oke Ogun or northern Oyo state
Did u know this oba sold d land for 5000 naira,I know where I got my source
im a Yoruba person, but I'm not stupid enough not to face reality
There is a hidden war going on in d background
If u like listen or don't listen,abuse me
That's your own problems
I've said my own
That northern Oyo state,hmm

Summary :
Yoruba Muslim re problem of Yorubas

The only problem Nigerian is having about the issue of the herdsmen is religion and tribe, they know what they can do about it.

These propagandists and enemies of Nigeria are working overtime to make Yoruba people go to war against the North?

It won't happen, abandon your failed and DOA mission because we are too smart to fall for the banana in the tailpipe.

When president Buhari was very ill during his first

tenure and a lot of Nigerians thought he would die, I

asked my mother what she felt about the whole issue!

Being an elderly woman who is also a non politically

inclined person who hardly watches the news at most

once or twice a month she said things that shook me

even till date and it might shock some of you. I've said

the first one before... You can check my previous post

but I'll say it again.

1.She said Buhari will recover fully and go on to win the election again and be sworn in for a second term.

And now the second part that I didn't say earlier.

2.She said his second term will be very terrible for the South west.

I didn't want to believe either especially the first but here we are. cry cry cry

And the Afonja-Alimi slave-feudal masters relationship debacle led to the lost of Ilorin without any shot fired?

-Brigadier Babafemi Ogundipe couldnt take over govt after Ironsi was killed because a hausa Sergent in the army disobeyed his orders while a mere Lt.Col.Gowon was calling the shots in Ikeja Barracks ?

-OBJ was cowardly hiding after the assassination of Murtala Muhammed while Lt.Gen.TY Danjuma was coordinating the government?

-Awolowo, MKO Abiola were big time victims of the feudal hausa-fulani hegemony? Guess you agreed that Tinubu is the next in line?

-And Oni of Ife & Alaafin of Oyo were the first to betray Diya & co by going to pledge the SW allegiance to the tyrannical Abacha govt even when the actual substance of the phantom Dec.1997 coup is yet to be known?

-Lt.Gen.Oladipo Donaldson Diya, Maj.Gen.Abdulkareem Adisa, Tajudeen Olarenwaju were helplessly weeping like babies before a mere Maj.Hamza Al-Mustapha after their alleged implication in the phantom coup plot
You need more?
