Balarabe Musa, Former governor of the old Kaduna State, has stated that the only explanation for President Muhammadu Buhari’s silence over renewed attacks by armed men, suspected to be Fulani herdsmen, resulting in the deaths of several Nigerians is absolute weakness, incompetent and loss of focus.
In an interview with Naij.com, Musa disclosed that his cows have been stolen twice; last year and this year. He said this further confirms the level of insecurity in the country as the cows were stolen in broad daylight.
“The killing by Boko Haram and Fulani herdsmen appears to be the only crime taking place in the country. It is not at all. These Fulani herdsmen are also stealing cows of others and the federal government is at moment powerless.
“My own cows have been stolen twice; last year and this year. It was never like this until this present government came to power. For people to be able to steal cows in the day time in Nigeria that shows the level of insecurity.”
“It is terrible. The President and his government are weak. Has the President said anything since the Fulani herdsmen started this senseless killings?” he asked.
“Let us not deceive ourselves. The President is quiet because he is a weak President. The state (Kaduna) government is also very weak in terms of security. They have put the lives of Nigerians in danger more than any government in recent times,” he said.
