What should we expect from a Fulani professor of Islamic studies if not bullshit.

Like some nairalanders will say "a professor that cannot back up his claims with evidences is that one a professor or a stupid headslammer?"

If these terrorists bring their madness to Ekiti they'll regret it.

Buhari should call his kinsmen to order cos this is not middle belt o.

His lackadaisical attitude regarding Fulani militia terrorist herdsmen may push this country to another war if care is not taken

Copy should be made available to the media.

We need to see the contents.

Police Confirm Militia Groups ‘Armed With AK-47’ In Benue

Akinola Ajibola
Updated January 18, 2018



Police have confirmed the existence of armed militia groups in Benue State which they said investigations would reveal soon.

Speaking on Thursday during an interview on Channels Television, the Force Public Relations Officer, Mr Jimoh Moshood, countered claims by Governor Samuel Ortom that there was nothing of such.

“Yes, they were armed with AK-47 (riffles); we have records, we have footage and you can’t just start arming people,” he said when he appeared on Sunrise Daily.


“There are a lot of militia groups equally in Benue and we are looking at all those areas to ensure that the actual perpetrators of this mayhem are promptly arrested.

“People who are supposed to ensure that when they observe (you say you have a guard) and report back to the police that would probably do the appropriate thing; if such a guard is armed with AK-47 rifle, how do you control that, how do you prevent such AK-47 (riffle) from going into wrong hands?” Moshood questioned.

He also disputed claims that the ranch guards who were inaugurated by the state government were unarmed, insisting that the police have their evidence.

The Force spokesman noted that it was unlawful for any person to be in possession of arm without the consent of the Federal Government.

He added that the said ranch guards were meant to take note of any suspicious activity and report to the police, stressing that investigations had revealed that they were carrying prohibited weapons.



On Ortom’s claims, Moshood said: “Yes, I’m disputing that because we have evidence that they were armed with AK-47 rifles.”

“It is equally important for people to know that we are investigating that, we must know the source of these AK-47 rifles.

“Any organisation that you are setting up before you can carry firearms must be approved by the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and it shouldn’t be a prohibited firearm.

“When you don’t draw the police into this and you arm people, you turn them into militias because you don’t control what they do with these firearms,” he added.

The Force spokesman, however, said the police have been supporting the Benue State government in terms of implementing the law on prohibition of open-grazing in the state.

According to him, the police have a responsibility to support any law made at all levels of government, as well as the ones made by the leadership of any community towards keeping the peace in the society.

Moshood said, “Even when you look at the international law, it’s like picking a cutlass and cutting a footpath and everybody is compelled to pass the footpath; so if that is the norms of the people, we should enforce it for them.”

Have the police been able to unravel and arrest armed Fulani militia terrorists?

I hope they wouldn't be biased in their investigation but I'll be surprised if they aren't cos till today despite thousands killed by Fulani militias terrorists herdsmen the police haven't told us those funding them but they'll be quick to arrest members of Benue anti grazing task force and those defending themselves.

Nigerians are watching and taking note.

sarrki:
Show us the thread you opened against Fulani herdsmen

N I will show you 3 three of mine

Stop this hypocrisy

Is that the name of your state?

Go and sit down with your bunch of pretenders claiming to be what you aren't.

Awon eru Gambari gang.

Did I need to tell you ?


Ask madridguy he knows better

Leave story tell us your family compound in Yoruba land. Real omoluabis don't get their heads stucked in jihadist's ass.

Your fellow zombie omenka claimed he's from Benue but keeps supporting Fulani terrorists so let's know the state are you from in SW.

I hope Prince Alhassan Ejike has gotten himself some ayeta, odeshi and okigbe coupled with capable bodyguards cos 'they'll come for him soon.

Seriously Yaya bello is not only a disgrace to kogites but to commonsense and reason. How a governor allowed himself to be so used still baffles me.

dukie25:
You're allowing them to play you like a zombie.
Oops!

Is he not a zombie already

To the topic at hand I can bet my left ball that majority of those arrested will be innocent / people defending their families against Fulani militia terrorists herdsmen.

I am not a member of any political party but this sounds inviting. It's high time Nigerians start thinking beyond present charade of political heavyweights polluting our space within APC and PDP.

Donald Duke will make a good president and I am willing to support him with my resources if he's given the chance.

sarrki:
I wish its Mr president

I swear am not happy

Aren't you aware your president suffers paralysis anytime there's a Fulani herdsmen militia terrorists attacks hence his inability to visit such places so the victims are the ones paying him visits

They also urged other state governments to adopt the law in their various states to check the menace of herdsmen in the country, noting that it was the way to go

They should impressed it on middle belt / southern governors to ensure anti grazing law is implemented asap with a big NO to cow colonies.

Southern Nigeria must come together to put a stop to Hausa/Fulani impunity, greed, injustice and disregard to human lives. It's even better we go our separate ways if they refuse to agree to restructuring.

Unbelievable

What happened to the funds claimed to have been released by the ministry of finance

This is a declaration of war on the middle belt if the statement is true.

Whosoever still believe there's no fulani agenda behind these killings is a very big fool.

“The way out of the crisis is not even a short time solution, because the herdsmen need to be enlightened on the modern techniques, but what Nigerians think about is short term solution.

The herdsmen we often see are not the real owners of the cattle but wealthy fulanis like Emirs, Top military men, Politicians e.t.c

So these real owners aren't ignorant of ranching

At least 12 people were feared killed on Wednesday as two suicide bombers attacked a market in Muna Garage in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital.

The military should double their efforts cos if these guys can successfully carried out attack in the state capital then it seems they are seriously coming back.

I wish the families of the victims strength to bear their loss.

When a leader failed in dispensing justice to all then people resorts to self-help.

Buhari refusal to bring Fulani herdsmen militia terrorists and their leaders to book will eventually lead to the majority ganging up against Fulani ethnic minority.

Their disregard to life, fairness, justice and reason will be their undoing cos it will make other ethnic groups come together to put an end to their supposedly invincibility and power in Nigeria.

I hope they'll apply wisdom, smell the coffee on time and change their ways for the betterment of all.

Saraki is a cabal himself, they dare not remove him.

APC will be "rocked' to it's foundation if Saraki defects and a tsunami will follow that'll surely gonna be impossible to handle by the party.

Xano:
interesting

you are right. It is an indictment on the President of Nigeria.
Everyone community along North Central and Southern Nigeria should arm themselves, defend their families, land and means of livelihood by all means.
NO MERCY

Unfortunately there seems to bee no other way out cos anarchy is gradually loading thanks to Buhari bigotry, nepotism and lackadaisical attitude to governance and protection of middle beltans.

It's painful how we got this situation of either kill or be killed. So so sad

killsmith:
I hope the Yoruba nation will stand behind Fayose because the fulanis will come for him.

Come for him for what

He did what any reasonable leader that loves his people should by immediately calling for the arrest of those involved and that is what Buhari lack as C in C

raker300:
Omenka has ran to the east..

Despite insults he keeps throwing to the igbos.

He knows the east is safe haven

His antecedents has shown he's not from Benue but Fulani.

All he does is insult IPOB and blame Governor Ortom.

This fool should stop lamenting and arm his people to defend themselves.

At the rate this killings are happening few years from now there won't be people to govern in Benue if actions are not taken asap.

If true defection of saraki to PDP will be the final straw and it's gonna be very very interesting


I just can't wait for the drama that'll follow

The second problem is that the subsidy is important, however, based on the figures that have been presented, it is clear that there is a bigger fraud that is being perpetrated. This is because the amount of PMS that is allegedly coming into Nigeria cannot be consumed by Nigerians. We consume about 27 million litres a day, while it has been alleged that 40 million litres a day of PMS is being brought in. There is a discrepancy somewhere.

Buhari, Kachikwu and Baru should be made to account for this fraud.

Nigeria is presently being run by a criminal gang.

Saleh said, “What is happening is a failure of government right from Mr. President to all of us seated here.

“We met with Mr. President yesterday (Monday) and our takeaway was nothing. All he said was ‘go and investigate,’ (to security agencies).

“So, what is happening is that the political will to tackle this problem is not there.”

“If the claim is that the killers are foreigners, is that not a failure of governance?

“Will you allow foreigners to come into your country, kill your citizens and you keep quiet because you have cultural affinity with the killers?”

I hope Nigerians are seeing this indictment of Buhari.

When people accused him of being a bloodsucking jihadist his almajiri minions and BMC zombies will start foaming at the mouth like rabid dogs.

And some of his fellow brain cripples still want same man to contest in 2019? Is it when the whole middle belt has been wiped out that Nigerians will realise the evil he and Fulani leaders represents?

Whichever governor failed to arm his indigenes and allowed his people to be killed cos of some political correctness is a fool.

Life is a gift by God and no man should allow his to be taken without fighting back cos as long as there no political will from the president to stop these killings then Fulani herdsmen militias terrorists has gotten themselves licence to continue their bloodletting.

President Muhammadu Buhari earlier today said Nigerians were accepting that his administration was doing its best, even if they were doing so grudgingly.

No wonder he likes cartoons he should have been a comedian.

seunmsg:
There was corruption and mismanagement during the parliamentary government of the first republic. In addition, the country was so divided along tribal line that Nigerians rejoiced when the military took over. So, let's stop painting the first republic as a perfect government. The presidential system of government was introduced to unite Nigerians and reduce ethnic tension. The operators of the system are the problem and not the system.

You can't equate the level of corruption then with what we have now and I never claimed the First republic was perfect but manifestos of parties then made sense than what we have now which Yorubas will always attest to by Awolowo policies in the western region.

And as per division aren't we more divided now than before?

It's time we stop deceiving ourselves with the present faulty political structure and its glaring injustices.

seunmsg:
In as much as the same set of people that are running the current presidential system of government will be the same people to run the parliamentary system, then nothing is going to change.

Parliamentary system is cheaper to maintain, power is shared without concentrating almost everything in the hands of a single individual and it's an ideal system for a multi ethnic society like ours.

Our best years of governance was under parliamentary system when each region developed at their own pace before military incursion into our political landscape.

“President Buhari is my friend and I want him to succeed but he is running a difficult system of government.

If he's truly your friend why not tell him "mallam this your fulanocracy is not working o"

Seriously Tinubu should be bold to tell Buhari the truth instead of hiding behind his men to make coded statements.

Maybe the pilot scheme of cow colony has commenced in Abuja

This can serve as an indictment of the Nigeria Police.

How come? Their school got burnt or what?

Anyway I wish their parents/family the strength to bear the loss.
