G9, the
umbrella body for all self determination groups in Nigeria, has called on
President Muhammadu Buhari to order immediate disarmament of all Fulani
herdsmen
throughout the country to stem the tide of imminent civil war.
In a release
personally signed by the convener of G9, Akogun Tola Adeniyi, the Group
challenged the Commander-in-Chief of Nigerian Armed Forces retired General
Buhari, the Chief of Army Staff General Buratai, and the Inspector General of
the Nigeria Police, Mr. Idris Ibrahim, to live up to their constitutional
responsibilities and convince Nigerians that they are not partisan.
The
continued and condoned brutal and brutish barbarism of the Fulani herdsmen
terrorists is about to plunge Nigeria into imminent war following the gruesome
murders perpetrated in Benue state. The Fulani herdsmen regarded by the world
body as the third most deadly terrorists group in the world must be disarmed
immediately if Nigeria is to prevent another Boko Haram.
We cannot
fold our arms like sheep tied to a stake as Fulani herdsmen marauders continue
their recklessness with impunity. Nigerians are horrified by the horrendous
sight of the horrific butchery, which claimed over 50 lives in Benue
communities on New Year’s Day!
Benue state
Governor Ortom in his reaction said the leadership of Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore
threatened to invade Benue communities and has carried out its threat without
let or hindrance!
Nigerians
are not deceived by the underlying intentions and designs of the Fulani
herdsmen as the terrorists rampage the length and breadth of the country while
those who should stop them turn a blind eye.
Enough is
enough!, declared the G9.
