sbeezy8: The thing is crops that are destroyed are what these people use to make a living. If it is destroyed, how can they make money to live. The herdsmen do not compensate them for their loses. |

Well maybe I should clarify and say I haven't heard of any clashes between the Fulani and Igbos in Abia State. |

Re: Tiv/fulani Clash Claims 17 In Benue by manny4life(m): 9:42pm On Feb 11, 2011 |
Abu-Maryam: You call April 2nd, 2008 publication out of date? In the world of media, it's regarded as archived current news. If hope u understand what out-of-date means, no offense but I'm just observing. |
Re: Tiv/fulani Clash Claims 17 In Benue by Chyz2: 9:44pm On Feb 11, 2011 |
Abu-Maryam: I have an outdated brain but you are the one who believes in an invisible man who rides a camel while holding a Quran, right. Im the crazy one though. |

[size=13pt]Herdsmen Kill 3 Farmers- cross river Jan 27 2011!!! [/size] A clash between Fulani herdsmen and farmers, mostly youths in Asang Eniong village in Odukpani Local Government Area of Cross River State has resulted in the death of three of the farmers. The herdsmen engaged the youths of the village in a fight Tuesday when the youths told them to vacate their farmland where the herdsmen were grazing their cattle. “We asked them to vacate the land as their cattle were destroying our crops but they refused. Rather, they engaged us in a fight with machetes and killed three of our members,” Etcheri Okokon, a youth leader in the village, told P.M.NEWS. The youth leader gave the names of those killed as: Samuel Ekanem, Ededem John and Idarete Okon. “The late Samuel was our youth leader. He had seven children. He led us to meet Alhaji Bature the head of the cattle rearers. But when we got there Bature asked Fulani people to attack us with machetes,” Okokon alleged. He stated that the cattle rearers went ahead to ransack their village, causing them to flee their homes. He claimed that the police sent to the village did not arrest the herdsmen. The Police Public Relations Officer, Cross River State Police Command, ASP Etim Dickson said he was not aware of the incident. However, another police source said eleven armed policemen have been drafted to the place and advised the fleeing villagers to return to their homes. |

sbeezy8: This is just barbaric! How can the govt. allow this people to go on and on; they are becoming a nuisance. It’s about time people start taking drastic measures to avert such nonsense. |

This really doesn't have anything to do with religion. No reason for it to be brought up. Simply property rights. Nothing more, nothing less. If a Christian/Atheist/Hindu Yoruba/Ijaw/Igbo steals from you, it is no different from a Muslim Fulani doing the same. |

religion and or ethnicity has nothing to do with it. fulanis even may clash with hausa nupes kanuris - has to do with LAWS and enforcing them i blame government for not drawing the line [size=13pt]Nupe, Fulani clash: Women, children flee from Niger communities [/size] Women and children are fleeing from the Cheku, Bina and Yelwa communities in the Lapai Local Government Area of Niger State following the recent communal clashes between the Nupe and Fulani which resulted in the killing of 14 persons. The Fulani, had in a reprisal attack on the Nupe in the three communities killed the victims, including the Chief Imam of Yelwa and burnt houses with several properties worth millions of naira destroyed. It was gathered that three persons died at the scene of the crisis while the 11 others, including the Chief Imam died at the Lapai General Hospital as a result of injuries they sustained. Our correspondent who visited the communities on Thursday observed the movement of women and children out of the areas in spite of the heavy presence of policemen deployed there to forestall further breakdown of law and order. |

Abu-Maryam stupidly defended them due to ethnicity, "northern brother" bullsh1t. I hope you'll still be defending them when they r@pe and then kill you. |

My question for everyone is why are the Nigerian Fulani like this? I have encountered Fulani from Senegal, Sierra Leone, Guinea and Burkina Faso and they do not seem to act like this. A good friend of mine that I met at my university is a Fulani from Sierra Leone says that her people have a peaceful co-existence with the various Mende & Krio people. Maybe it is the nomadic Fulani who have kept to the old ways, that need to be trained. I hear the urban Fulani are a totally different people in many aspects. |

EzeUche_: It is something worthy of note that Abia State has high population of Northerners.In Umuahia they are highly inter-married and most of them speak Igbo.In Umuchieze,there are over 20000 northerners concentrated in a small village near Lokpanta. |

CrossRivers, Anambra and Imo? Since when did these bastarrrd Fulani tribes start bring their nonsense to our domain? Look seriously its time for the civilized Igbo, Tiv, Efik, Berom to come together and workout a final solution to stop ther menace. We can't just let these ppl murder our kit and kin in cold blood. |
Re: Tiv/fulani Clash Claims 17 In Benue by EzeUche2(m): 11:05pm On Feb 11, 2011 |
Abagworo: That is the truth. I remember talking to someone in Aba, and I thought he was Igbo, until he told me that his grandfather came from Kano. I was in a state of shock. The man spoke perfect Igbo. They can definitely blend in Igbo society. |

"one has to be careful with is fulani people, before you know it they will start attacking kanuri people Sad" @ Alj Harem, u are defending them instead of calling a spade a spade. We shall all hear it when the fulani herdsmen declare war on the Kanuris. No one will pity you then. |
Re: Tiv/fulani Clash Claims 17 In Benue by ekubear1: 11:36pm On Feb 11, 2011 |
Alj Harem, you will cower in fear like a chicken rather than defending your people, their property and lives? These aren't robots or aliens who cannot die. They are flesh and blood like everyone else. Not even armed with bullet-proof vests or anything. Knife, machete, and guns are the answer, not fear. If another people who you outnumber can whip you on your own land, then you do not deserve to keep it. |

[size=13pt]Fulani/Bororo, Oke-Ogun farmers endless clash over farms [/size] When Sunday Tribune visited Igboho in Oorelope Local Government, a certain Mr. Sidi Bakare, who called himself an indigenous Fulani gave a little insight on the tribe. When asked what difference existed between Fulani and Bororo, he said: “Fulani is like a generic name for all of us. We have three major types of Fulanis. We have the Bargus, who are regarded as indigenous Fulanis, they have been living here before the arrival of any other Fulani tribe. We also have Hausa Bororos and the real Bororos.” A notable strain in the relationship between the Fulani/Bororo tribe and their Yoruba hosts has always manifested itself in the occupations of the two ethnic groups. The Yoruba land owners, who are mainly subsistence farmers have causes to clash with the Fulani/Bororo people, whose major occupation is cattle rearing. Countless cases have been reported of cows straying into, eating and destroying farms, which often lead the two tribes down conflict paths. These actions which have earned the Fulani/Bororo cattle rearers a bad reputation of being insensitive, callous and unsympathetic to the plights of their accommodating hosts. This and the widely-held allegations that some Fulani/Bororos are major actors in the rampant robbery cases within the region have further deepened the gulf in the relationship between the two tribes. Sunday Tribune reliably gathered that these lists of ‘sins’ have led to an inherent reservation for the Fulani/Bororo tribe among some of the Yoruba folks, while the former were also said to express same attitude towards the latter, who they regarded as too possessive. However, the Alepata of Igboho, Oba (Dr) Johnson Oyeyiola, allayed the fears that the Fulani/Bororo tribe poses a danger to Oke Ogun, saying that there is peaceful coexistence between them. According to him, “we are living here peacefully, we cannot experience what they are having over there in Jos[size=13pt]. ” Mr Sidi Bakare, the secretary of the Fulani community in Oorelope local government also buttressed this when he said, “I was born and bred here, even my forefathers were born here. We are the inidigenous Fulani, we are living in peace with the people of the local government, we really appreciate the peaceful coexistence that exists between us and the other tribes. There is no discrimination, we are accommodated as if we are Yorubas.”[/size] |
