Femi Fani-Kayode, former Aviation
Minister, on Thursday maintained that President Muhammadu Buhari is “openly
encouraging and protecting” Fulani herdsmen killing Nigerians.
The former Minister stressed that
the president was rationalizing herdsmen “genocidal slaughter and mass murder.”
Fani-Kayode, a chieftain of the
Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, urged Nigerians to rise up and defend themselves
from Fulani terrorists “indulging in a “bloodfest.”
In a tweet via his social media
handle, the former Minister wrote: “Yesterday it was Benue today it is Taraba.
The Fulani terrorists are indulging in a bloodfest of gargantuan proportions
whilst the Buhari govt. openly encourages and protects them and attempts to
rationalise their genocidal slaughter and mass murder. Time to defend
ourselves!”
There have been several attacks
on residents of Benue State in recent weeks by Fulani herdsmen, a situation
that has drawn condemnations from a cross section of Nigerians.
Just yesterday, the Inspector
General of Police, Ibrahim Idris arrived Benue State to restore law and order,
following an order from President Muhammadu Buhari. The police boss apologized to residents for the killings
carried out by killer herdsmen.
