Obviously making mockery of President Muhammadu Buhari’s style of administration, the Governor of Benue State, His Excellency, Samuel Ortom, has challenged the presidency to arrest Fulani Herdsmen who carry dangerous AK47 Rifles and attack the locals in parts of the country just the same way Nnamdi Kanu was arrested few days ago.
The Governor made the call in a statement on the eve of Thursday July 1st 2021 saying that while he has no problem with the arrest of the Biafran leader, the Federal Government’s fight against terrorism and other crimes would only be seen to be unbiased if armed herders who have been killing innocent citizens are also apprehended”.
“Herders armed with sophisticated weapons attack and sometimes kill Livestock Guards and other security agents, and this is a situation which deserved a more decisive approach,” he said.
The Governor, however, reaffirmed that the day the Federal Government decides to end insecurity, the menace will become a thing of the past in the country emphasising that “Herders armed with sophisticated weapons attack and sometimes kill Livestock Guards and other security agents, and this is a situation which deserved a more decisive approach,” he said
