Northern Senators have issued stern warnings to governors and village heads in South-East to desist from making statements that can create tense atmosphere in the country
The chairman of the Northern Senators’ Forum, Senator Abdullahi Adamu from Nasarawa West read, a communique on behalf of the group after the meeting in Abuja, Vanguard reports.
Senator Adamu stated that there would be no country called Nigeria should the Fulani Herdsmen be evicted from the South.
He said: “We appreciate the steps the federal government had taken so far to contain the problems of herdsmen/farmers clashes and call on community leaders to be careful when making statements on these ugly incidences.
“There would be no country called Nigeria, if other parts of the country asked Fulani herdsmen to leave their communities and states. We, therefore, warn everybody, including governors to desist from making inflammatory remarks.”
“It is for all Nigerians. A governor is a community leader. The only difference is that he has a label called governor.
“If you don’t mind, attacks by Fulani Herdsmen in recent times started with the West when elder statesman, Chief Olu Falae, had some very nasty experience. It was attributed at the time to Fulani herdsmen. At the end, those people were apprehended and they were not Fulanis.
“This thing has been going on in virtually all parts of the country today. If we now say that everybody should rise and say herdsmen should leave, we will not have a country,” he added.
Please hurry up and evict those losers. We are even tired of being joined with these aboki morons
