It is no news that Yoruba land is under attack by terrorist Fulani herdsmen. if their men are overwhelmed they should seek the help of eastern security network. now is the time for southern Nigeria to be united and fight the common enemy if only the Yorubas will not turn around and betray the south

If that hotel has a CCTV, I'm very sure they will be caught.
