Omoba.
Are you responding in a wholesome manner to the whole press statement?
What is new? The President has said similar things in the past that groups should be accommodating of their neighbours and should not engage in tit for tat killings. Did you read the part that said Fulani leaders allow their youths to go on rampage after some of their own have been killed?
Is that not what is causing the mayhem in Kaduna state today?
I have stated that if the presence of one of their own in the Presidency is what is encouraging Fulani youths then the interim solution is for Nigerians to insist on ( ethnic) majority rule for the foreseeable future ( since the country cannot be seen to be disfranchising only a particular minority ethnicity.)

Subject: Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - MIYETTI ALLAH BLAMES HERDERS FOR INSECURITY.
Now the chickens have come home to roost. Let's hear what the Communication officers of the Fulani herdsmen who have defended and absolve them of any wrongdoing on this forum will now say. Even the culprits are caught red handed, they told us it was alleged-underlined. Now that we have heard from the leadership of the same group, we will hear what the distant cousins will say. Bi iro ba lo logun odun....

BREAKING NEWSTRANSLATE SELECT LANGUAGE▼ Miyetti Allah blames herders for worsening insecurity ON DECEMBER 15, 20205:01 AMIN NEWS Kindly Share This Story:FacebookTwitterEmailWhatsAppPinterestShare By Aliyu Dangida The National President of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, MACBAN, has blamed various states leaders of the group for the present insecurity in most parts of the country. Alhaji Muhammadu Kirowa, who spoke at the inauguration ceremony of North Western states executives of MACBAN in Dutse, Jigawa State, said Fulani leaders were responsible for the state of insecurity in their domain as they allowed youths to go out of control. ADVERTISING He said: "Before any other person gets kidnapped about 20 or more Fulani people must have suffered the same fate with payment of ransoms which no media had bothered to report or investigate in the past. We have to tell ourselves the truth that we have failed in our responsibility of giving our children the right training and good upbringing that ought to have shaped them for a better people.

Alhaji Kirowa, who is also the Ardon Zuru, implored leaders and other Fulani societies to either unite and provide their children with better home training and education or continue to stain the name of the tribe and take the responsibilities of their activities. Earlier, National Secretary General in charge of North West of MACBAN, Alhaji Baba Usman Ngelzarma, urged the newly- inaugurated leaders to team up with heads of security operatives in their various states to enable them have a smooth working relationship. Ngelzarma noted that the association was non-political, hence "the Sultan of Sokoto is serving as Board of Trustee, BOT, chairman with other members that includes the Emir of Kano, Lamido of Adamawa," among others. He urged Fulani cattle breeders to embrace the modern trend of cattle ranching to avoid conflicts with farmers and continued exposure to criminal tendencies.--
