He stated this on Friday, while speaking to journalists on the incessant herdsmen conflict at his residence in Yola.
Tukur also urged Nigerians to investigate deeply before drawing conclusions on the matter.
He said: “Nigerians must ask serious questions and stop looking at this at the surface. To the Fulani man, his cattle is life’s worth, so he will never drive his cattle into someone’s farm because that will breed trouble and it would cost him his cows. There are people dressing up like Fulani going about killing, maiming and wreaking havoc on the Nigerian people. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

I wish that the Nigerian army can be smart and wise enough to understand that all these claims by these dimwits is simply indicting the army that they are not doing their jobs which one of them is to protect the integrity of the Nigerian borders! If foreigners come in to kill Nigerians, so why are they sacred cows? The police is also being indicted. The house of assembly that is trying to pass a bill for grazing land is also indicted - that they are trying to take Nigerians' lands from the citizenry and give it to foreigners free, no tax, nothing!
ReplyDeleteWhy are Nigerians always deceived?! What are the youth doing, sitting and listening to all these crap from these senile brains of these erstwhile leaders? Foreigners come in to dress like Fulani men, why are they always at Benue killing Christians? Why haven't they gone to other countries like Kenya? Why haven't Nigerians also dressed like Libyans to go there and kill them? when will these illiterates realize that Nigerians are no fools like them when they come to the media to talk. Is it not better to keep quiet that to expose ones emptiness and lack of wisdom on the media? Tukur am disappointed. I thought you were a leader but no, far from it. You seemed to me a wise man, until now that you opened your dirty mouth. No wonder the bible says that "When a fool is silent, he is counted for a wise"
Salute to your display of wisdom and maturity.
DeleteVery well said! Respect! Was it foreigners El-Rufai paid to stop the killing? Bamanga Tukur must think we are all imbeciles!
DeleteMr. Tukur so Nigeria has become so cheap that foreigners can be entering as they want to kill, kidnapped,rape the citizens and get away with it at all time, and you call yourself giant of Africa, I suggest we invite president trump of USA to help us out since Nigeria government cannot to protect her citizens, what a sorry pity.
ReplyDeleteVery soon, Lai Mohammed will tell us that it is Jonathan or PDP that is behind it.

Who are these killer foreigners? Does anybody care to find out? You people in a bid not to tell the truth keep on claiming that they aren't Nigerians. Isn't it plausible to say that they dress like foreigners or disguise as foreigners?
ReplyDeleteYou and El Rufai should tell ICC this by the time you are handed over to the court for genocide. Akwuya!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how Nigerians are Divided so much between Ethnicity, Religious and political and people are so desperate to see Trouble start in this our Country no single religion or Ethnicity can only suffer the consequences every Nigeria will suffer the trouble when it started. May the Almighty Allah Continue to protect our great Country Nigeria and it Citizens.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fallacy this one is talking about? Some people dressed like Fulani? Am not surprised at the backwardness of this Northerners! Who's going to believe that kind of stuff?
ReplyDeleteAlhaji Tukur, What a dump excuse are you giving us? Please tell that to the marines because not all Nigerians are dumb. Okay? Foreigners invade your land killing only a section of the people and you are helpless as a governor or elder. Why didn't you sacrifice your old self for the younger generation being killed so you have someone to bury you instead of killing all your youths and women. Agbaya
