There is a government in West Africa that loves cows more than its citizens. It is no other than the regime of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), of the Federal Republic of Nigeria under the All Progressives Congress.

The love for cows and herdsmen by the Buhari regime knows no bound. While this is understood, because the Nigerian President is a proud cattle farmer, who hails from the Fulani extraction who are predominantly pastoral farmers and cattle dealers, it is not yet clear why some state governors are also of the same character.

In Nigeria, the high rate of insecurity has been compounded by some notorious Fulani herdsmen and the failure of the Buhari regime to deal decisively with them. Gun-wielding herdsmen have been accused of killing farmers, grabbing farmland and attacking villages across the country in desperation for greener pastures.

The killing in different parts of the country and the sacred treatment of killer herdsmen by the Buhari regime is currently increasing ethnic, regional and religious tension in the country.

Just recently, the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, reportedly ordered the arrest of one Sunday Adeyemo, a popular Yoruba activist better known as Sunday Igboho, for issuing a quit notice to herdsmen in Ibarapa town of Oyo State.

Igboho had asked herdsmen in Igangan in Ibarapa North Local Government Area of Oyo State to leave the area within seven days when it was obvious the government and security agencies were treating herdsmen with kid gloves following incessant reports of killing and kidnapping of defenceless Oyo citizens by these people.

Igboho had blamed the herdsmen in Ibarapa especially of the Fulani extraction, including Saliu Kadri, the Seriki Fulani in the environment, of being behind the rising insecurity in the area. Meanwhile, before the community resorted to self-help by inviting Igboho, the people were already helpless and hopeless following the lackadaisical and reluctant attitude of government and security agencies to respond to distress calls due to the Buhari regime’s love for cows and herdsmen.

It was sad and very disappointing that the same government that could not fish out killer herdsmen in Ibarapa and refused to arrest some prime suspects and killer herdsmen as alleged by community leaders in the area, was very quick to declare the arrest of Igboho who was on a rescue mission to rid the community of crime, a proof that the Buhari regime loves cows and herdsmen more than its citizens.

According to the BBC, on Monday, January 1, 2018, Fulani herdsmen through Miyetti Allah, the umbrella organisation of cattle herders in Nigeria, claimed responsibility for the attack on some communities in Benue State, which claimed the lives of over 20 residents. To date, no executive member of the group that claimed responsibility for such a heinous crime was arrested, a proof that the Buhari regime loves cow than the citizens.

So also, many residents of Ketu-speaking villages in Yewa North Local Government Area of Ogun State were brutalised by some soldiers alleged to have escorted herdsmen to graze on people’s farmland in the communities, prompting residents, some elected representatives and monarchs to cry out for government help about four weeks ago. Till date, none of the herdsmen and the so-called soldiers was arrested – a proof that the Buhari loves cows and herdsmen more than the citizens.

In defending cows and herdsmen, a governor from the north said this: “Because the Fulani man is practising the tradition of pastoralism, he has been exposed to the vagaries of the forest; cattle rustlers who carry guns kill him and take away his commonwealth, which is the cows. He has no option than to carry AK47 because the society and the government are not protecting him. What is his fault; it’s the fault of the government and the people. You don’t criminalise all of them, because, in every tribe, there are criminals.”

Above was a statement credited to Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State in defence of herdsmen who go about with Ak47 rifle in the name of protecting cows; another proof that the Buhari regime loves cows than its citizens.

Not quite long, the Buhari regime condemned Governor Rotimi Akeredolu’s of Ondo State for giving an ultimatum to herdsmen to vacate Ondo forest reserves in his quest to create a database. The governor called for the registration of all the herdsmen in the state as part of his moves to end banditry, kidnapping and herders/farmers conflict currently claiming more lives than the Boko Haram insurgency across Nigeria.

Unfortunately, a government that swore to protect the lives and properties of Nigerians, which has failed in that obligation, quickly rushed to the press to condemn Akeredolu’s action through a statement issued by Garba Shehu, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity. Is that also not a proof that the Buhari regime loves cows and herdsmen more than the citizens?

On February 19, 2021, some leaders of the Ifon community in the Ose local government area of Ondo State protested against the invitation of their four elders by the police over the alleged killing of a cow.

The community leaders said they were surprised that the police were pursuing supposed killers of cows when they had yet to unravel those who killed their traditional ruler, the Oluifon of Ifon, Oba Israel Adeusi. The action of the police looks very funny but it’s indeed a proof that the Buhari regime loves cows and herdsmen more than the citizens.

As I write, hundreds of military operatives have launched heavy attacks on the camps of the Eastern Security Network, a voluntary group at the forefront of the struggle to curb the criminal activities of herdsmen and their cows in some parts of the forest of Orlu and Orsu, in Imo State following the failure of the Nigerian government in arresting and prosecuting killer herdsmen across the country.

What more proofs do we need again to know that the Federal Government of Nigeria led by President Muhammadu Buhari loves cows and herdsmen more than its citizens?

Suspected herdsmen kill woman returning from stream in Ogun


By Daud Olatunji


Suspected herdsmen have hacked a young woman, Elizabeth Pascal, to death.
Pascal was was said to have been gruesomely murdered on Monday evening at CAC Olorunda, Moriwi community of Imeko-Afon Local Government Area.
Our correspondent gathered that Pascal had gone to the stream to fetch water for domestic use when she was murdered.
She was said to have been attacked on her way back from the stream.
The young woman had encountered her assailants, who, it was learnt, did not hesitate before hacking her to death in cold blood.
The Eselu of Iselu, Oba Akintunde Akinyemi, confirmed the incident.
Oba Akinyemi told our correspondent that Pascal was killed by suspected Fulani herdsmen, who had continued to terrorise the Yewa axis of Ogun State.
He said, “Yes, it is true. The lady was killed today (Monday) by Fulani herdsmen around Imeko-Afon. She went to the stream and on her way coming, she met the Fulani herdsmen and they killed her. It happened around 3 o’clock, according to the report.”
The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Abimbola Oyeyemi, confirmed the incident.
Oyeyemi said the woman was an indigene of Benin Republic who was killed on her way to the stream in Imeko-Afon, Ogun State.
The PPRO said her husband had come to claim the corpse and had taken it to Benin Republic.
Benin refugee camp: Akinlade, groups tackle Ogun over denial
Meanwhile, the governorship candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement in the last general election in Ogun State, Adekunle Akinlade, and some Yewa groups have faulted the state government which said no indigene of the state was at the refugee camp in Benin Republic.
Akinlade and two groups, Yewa North Patroitic Forum, and Yewa Progressives Forum in separate press statements on Tuesday, said the government goofed.
Akinlade, who has returned to the All Progressives Congress, said the statement credited to the Chairman of Peace Keeping Committee, Kayode Oladele, was wrong.
In the statement signed by his media aide, Alao Azeez, he (Akinlade) described the statement as a misrepresentation of facts.
He said the committee should agree that lives had been lost while people were displaced from their ancestral homes in the wake of the violence.
The statement read in part, “Yewa land consists of various ethnic groups such as the Ketu, Anago, Awori, Eyo, Egun, Egbado, Hohori, to mention a few. Historically, they intermarry, farm, trade and transact business across our land-boarders which do not take away the fact that they are Yewa indigenes.”
Also, YNPF in a statement signed by its Director of Media, Olasunkanmi Akinlotan, described the denial by the Ogun State Government as disgusting.
Corroborating Akinlade, the YNPF President, Sogo Akinde, said, “The chairman of committee goofed by saying that Hohori and Egun that were in Benin Republic refugee camp are not Yewa. They are bonafide Yewa indigenes and that statement has confirmed that our people are still in exile.”
Meanwhile, the State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, at the presentation ceremony in Abeokuta on Tuesday announced the deployment of 10 patrol vans and 20 motorcycles in the Yewa axis of the state.
The government said it was part of efforts to check the herders/farmers’ crisis in the area.

May God punish the DeadVultureMeatGrillBBQ proprietor and his lineage. It shall never be well with sycophants and those who without shame turn the truth on it head, because of mere morsel of bread.

If you know you're the one, do well to report me to the mods for another round of banning. Bastards!
