Sometime in 2018, one senator Shehu Sani, a senator of the federal republic of Nigerian made a statement in the house of assembly that was both funny and thought-provoking. He said that the federal government treats every other region in Nigeria with an insecticide approach when they commit a crime but when a particular region commits the same crime, they're treated with a deodorant approach instead, why?
That comment by senator Shehu Sani sounded funny to Nigerians but they sure could relate to what he said. Every day as time go by the government exhibits more and more how biased they are in treating Nigerians, terrorists have been killing and maiming Nigerians for years now but the government has not been able to identify nor charge anyone to court, no one has ever been identified, the government has not been able to take a step towards putting an end to the incessant killings of innocent Nigerians by Fulani herdsmen
one would have thought that the government is too weak to handle insecurity in Nigeria or that they don't know what they're doing, you'll think they're clueless. but when nationalities of different regions commit similar crimes that the Fulani commit, you'll see how powerful and active the government is
Just yesterday, a prison was attacked and inmates set free, it didn't take president Buhari and the police up to 12 hours to "investigate" and announce the people behind the attack, but it has taken so many years yet they can't Identify nor proscribe Fulani herdsmen killing innocent Nigerians terrorists even though they're on the world's list of the most dangerous terror groups in the world
Now, I am in no way supporting the attack on the prisons, I condemn it entirely because it is senseless and uncalled for, it's barbaric and an act of terror like the president said from London but why hasn't the presidency or the police similarly condemned Fulani herdsmen attacks?
They're making it look like Fulani herdsmen are a special terrorist group being sponsored and supported by the nigerian government and fighting them will be like fighting the government, you can't have me think or believe otherwise because those herdsmen ate being protected by the police and the military against law-abiding citizens. They move about freely with their AK-47 rifles and nobody has the right to question or arrest them, what would you have me think?
I urge the federal government to prove us wrong and make us liars by fighting terrorism and Fulani herdsmen with the same energy or is fighting criminals of other regions, until they do that, we will never take them seriously and we will always believe they have a hand in the activities of this terrorist groups
