FULANI HERDSMEN KILLING – LAI MOHAMMED REVEALS FG PLANS
The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed has disclosed that
the Federal Government was quietly working towards bringing an end to
the persistent Fulani herdsmen/farmers crises across the country.
Mohammed made the disclosure on Sunday during a special prayer for the
stability of the nation by an Islamic group, Saadatul Abadiyyah
Organisation of Nigeria in Abeokuta, the Ogun State Capital.
According to Mohammed, President Muhammadu Buhari had also constituted a
panel of inquiry to look into the recent alleged Fulani attacks, adding
that Nigerians would soon feel the effects of the silent efforts being
made by the government.
Mohammed said, “the President did speak immediately these things
happened, to the extent of setting up a panel of enquiry. But the
government is going to do more than that.
“These communal clashes are very delicate issues, very emotional and
what the government is doing is working very silently to ensure that
people who used to live together before without any conflict will go
back to that. In few weeks from now, we will begin to see the result of
that.”
Recall that there has been persistent clashes between suspected Fulani
herdsmen and farmers across the country with States like Benue, Plateau,
and Taraba as the worst hit.
