Nigerians React To Gov. Fayose's War On Fulani Herdsmen

Nigerians React To Gov. Fayose's War On Fulani Herdsmen

The Fulani herdsmen which has been named the fourth deadliest known terrorist group operating in Nigeria and parts of the Central African Republic.

The little-known group, formed of individuals from the semi-nomadic pastoral ethnic group Fula people existing across several West African nations, has seen a dramatic escalation of its activities in recent times.

Their activities started silently in Agatu area of Kogi state, and nobody paid attention to it. They killed so many helpless people, without cause.

When appeals intensified to look into the matter, before they become a total menace like the Boko haram, the Federal Government said they were only taking 'silent' actions against them.

Amidst this, the police told the world that the attacks were not by herdsmen but thugs. When asked where they come from, no answers were given.

They moved to Enugu and have since cause a lot of damage. But their movement to Ekiti state made the Governor declare war on them (Fulani herdsmen)

When he saw that that was not working, he has empowered vigilantes to 'kill' any fulani herdsmen found grazing in the state.

He has since cancelled any form of grazing in the state to chase away the fulani herdsmen and Nigerians have made their comments on the war declaration.

In a normal society, Fayose would be condemned & ostracized for his invocation of genocide, in Nigeria, alas, some shall justify his words.

Fayose's stance is an indictment on the PMB admin. Does PMB or APC expect Fayose to beg before he protects his people?

When Ekiti hunters start using Gov. Fayose’s directive to settle scores, it will be come clearer.

I'm finding it difficult to understand those who attack Fayose. He's only doing what the Enugu 'cockroach' Gov couldn't do!

@MrAyeDee Fayose hasn't called for attacks on innocent people, he called for attack on murderers. These people can attack unannounced.
