The senator representing Kaduna Central senatorial district in the National Assembly, Sen. Shehu Sani, has disclosed the real cause of the Fulani herdsmen killings that have enveloped the country.
He revealed this in a series of tweets via his verified Twitter handle on Thursday morning.
According to Sani, “The roots of Herdsmen mass murder and kidnappings in other parts of Nigeria is in the policy of ‘Paying Fulani Herdsmen’ by some Governors.They appeased a monster with public funds and now the monster is going door to door;Sahel,Savanna and mangrove forests.”
He tweeted:
Kaduna state is as unsafe as Benue,Zamfara and Taraba states.Birnin Gwari bothering Zamfara and Niger state is controlled by heavily armed bandits or Herdsmen who are killing both soldiers and civilians.Kidnaping & killing is a daily occurrence.Anything short of this is a lie.

The mass killings & kidnappings going on in parts of Kaduna state is systematically suppressed in order not to embarrass d state & the FG .Poor people kept burying their dead with tears & others paying heavy ransom to Herdsmen.The victims r expected to praise Govt for ‘trying’.

Any Governor of a state operating the policy of Conditional Cash transfer to Killer Herdsmen is their patron.And he must be seen and treated as a national security risk.
