Between June 2015 and April 2016, Fulani herdsmen have killed over 710 Nigerians (excluding Agatu Incident) in 48 recorded incidents, the highest in recent years.
For the first time, the nation’s DSS only interest in these avoidable blood bath, seem only to accuse one organization of killing 5 Fulani.
That accusation is yet to be substantiated with photographs or at least a DSS invitation to media people to the graves in order to corroborate their allegations.
Monday morning, six communities in Uzo-Uwani L.G.A. of Enugu State received it hot, as usual from the rampaging Fulani warriors. Two churches, over a hundred houses, dozens dead and hundreds injured with many still missing. Nigerians do not expect any positive reaction from the F.G. and the DSS. for obvious reasons.
This bloodletting which began since the new Govt. took power is interestingly redefining how much faith, large sections of Nigeria should have in the ability or willingness of the F.G. to protect them from this Fulani warriors, who clearly act as if they know that .F.G. cannot (or is it, will not) save the helpless victims from their attacks.
But above all, the ongoing war by the Fulani herdsmen, has only confirmed Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, Leader of IPOB, a Prophet and a Visionary, who saw tomorrow. Mazi Kanu correctly predicted over the radio, what the Fulani would do to the middle belt, South East, South South and the South West.
The serial slaughter by the Fulani, the intimidation by the security agents and the disturbing silence of the president, who incidentally is also Fulani and life patrol of Miyetti Allah Cattle breeders Association, have put Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in the league of avatars, who correctly predicted events before they happened.
This development has also greatly increased Kanu’s popularity, especially amongst the oppressed, suppressed and consistently attacked populations, who now see him as a hero and a legend. This has resulted in a huge sympathy towards the gospel of IPOB and its leader.
When you add this to the excruciating pain and suffering, citizens have been subjected to, in the last ten months, these unnecessary killings and destruction only lead the victims along one line of thought: The Fulani herdsmen are making Biafra a very popular option.
