Browsing: Muhammadu Bambado II

Yesterday (Wednesday January 25) I got a call from Ardo that is the Sarki Fulani of Nasarawa State, who told me what really happened. He told me that Rukubi, a town and settlement of Fulanis in Doma Local Government, Nasarawa State, was where the sad event occurred.  He said sometimes ago Fulani’s cows from the boundary community in Nasarawa State were seized by the Benue State Government.  You can imagine how the movement of cows could naturally be and since the Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom, claims there is a law and if they catch your cow, there is a fine you pay.

The Sarkin Fulani of Lagos State, Muhammadu Bambado, and his counterpart in Nasarawa State, Salihu Muhammad, have condemned the alleged killing by military airstrikes of over 42 Fulani herders, who some military sources say tried to tag bandits in the early hours of Wednesday.
