Seems like the North West is politicians have purposely organized the banditry attack so as to claim more fund from the federal government like Presidential Intervention on North East (PINE) and the ministry of Niger Delta

Is this one also caused by climate change now?

When Boko Haram was massacring Christians in the North, the North and yoruba moslems (MURIC) were hailing them.

Today, BH have murdered more moslems than Christians.

When herdsmen started their madness, the North and yoruba moslems again were giving them moral supports.

Today, Benue, Taraba and Plateau are enjoying some respite while NW that were indifferent to the madness and their slaves cheering them are feeling the heat now.

SW and NW should enjoy their Next Level in peace.
