The MACBAN’s chairman, Musa Aliyu Ardo, who spoke to one of our correspondents on the sidelines of a capacity-building workshop on conflict prevention in Kaduna on Thursday, insisted that herders were peace-loving people who co-existed with other ethnic groups.
“Rearing cattle is the average herders’ means of livelihood. We have no Western education. Any attempt to separate us from our cattle, means depriving us from our source of livelihood. This is unacceptable and will be resisted. The herder co-exists with all ethnic groups but once he is forced out of his trade; his rights to living trampled, he will be forced to fight back.”
Abdurra’uf added, “As far as we are concern, we suffered more than Zamfara State in terms of the activities of kidnapping, banditry and armed robbery.”
And if herders force farmers out of business they should not fight back? Build a ranch,this 21stC
That does not give them the audacity to kill other people and disrupt their businesses.
Where else in the world do you see this type of picture? The herders are so pig headed that they feel that they can do what pleases them not considering the impact their action has on others.
President Muhammadu Buhari is one of them. I say it without fear or favour. The president is there and a group of people are threatening his people and he is not reacting. This Miyetti Allah have killed thousands before, and now they want to unleash another terror on us.
This is a lawless country where people make inflammatory comments that do lead to loss of lives and yet they are not held responsible for their deeds. Miyetti Allah should do business in their dormain, not in another man's land. You go to people's farm, destroy their crops.
So GMB will be out of office in 4yrs time. Then herdsmen will be history. Deport them back to Northern part of West Africa where they belong
This people want to confirm the more that they are above the law. Their name is opposite what they do. Truly they are killers.
Imagine talk.
Strong message there
So people are still eating cow meat? I have not eaten cow meat in 5 years. Why can't people stop eating cow meat.
Next Level Next Level Next Level
Where was miyetti Allah during OBJ’s regime he would have dealt a hard blow on them
Herders are rebaptized Boko boys, with a different name, just to make them, look more legal, even in the face of the atrocities being committed by them, just few are genuine herders.
One day this frequent threats from Miyetti Allah will cease for good.
Ghen ghen ghen ghen
They were in business before this government came. Where’s the fight coming from? 🤷🏽♀️
Nuisance, who is forcing you out of business? Do it the right way, and stop winning! You are not paying for the farmers land nor did they take people's lands by force. Join the civilised world and do ranches!
Ur friendly armed neighbours av spoken and are ready to continues in destroying life's and properties but d harmless ipob must b dealt wt even wtout threat to destroy life's and properties. Sai baba for 2198,
So you've got new weapons to fight back from the 100bn?
There are not as many herders as other professions. Soon your battery will die. What goes up must come down. This too will surely pass.
Your patron is not going to remain in power forever. Mteeeeeeew Wetin sef? If not because we want peace. This pipo think say dem dey craze. Them no know say some pipu craze pass dem. Make dem fight back na. Dem go fight taya. Dem think say this na 1960s?
These guys really believe they hold the monopoly of violence. The Bloodhound of Nigeria is smiling at them from heaven.
Stupid mentality. There is every need to restructure this country .we can not continue with this senseless and stupid set of people in this modern society.
You guys time will soon be up, your leader PMB will not be President forever!!!
The maitti Allah have been decieved by Buhari's leadership immunity cover. Hundred years is not forever. Time is coming that things will turn out against you God liveth.
And we will be waiting for them
If by a non-criminal action for instance if protecting my farm land from encroachment, a group of people who so not want to move with the new trend in their business are forced out of business, then it's okay for them to take criminal action to fight back ...
These guys since the emergence of Buhari have continued to issue threats to Nigerians . Let's hope one day we will reclaim our country.
So it's about using your own reggae to disrupt another man's blues.... Personally, I don't blame these guys for been vocal their patron is giving them that leverage.
The owners of Nigeria are speaking.
Rubbish
No one ☝️ is forcing herders out of business, all we are saying is do your business in the legitimate way and stop ✋ the killings. Sekena!
And others would learn to defend . By the time calamity unite Nigerians against herders , they would be forced to think right ,in line with MODERNITY. We , other interest , cannot continue to be the price for your MENTAL STAGNATION.. ELASTIC OVERDRAWN BREAKS.
If every tribe fights the herders at same time, which among them will remain?
What about the farmers you are putting out of livelihood?
by killing of harmless indigenous people?
And they will all die like thier cattle
Imagine this idiot blabbing out nonsense! Honestly, this is another terrorism on the rise
Let them fight back and they will lose the fight by the power of holy ghost ,throuy our lord Jesus Christ .Amen. There will be no contest because they are terrorist group as such they will regret it.
Why Wunt there be fighting back when the government herself creates the opportunity to do so. Shoo 😡
LMAO 😂😆😁
Who are these barbarian good for nothing sake OMG! And someone who will say we have government in this bloody country? Government my ass
What Miyetti Allah saying? Is fighting back the sole right of herders? How many Nigerians have not only been forced out of business but even from their ancestral land? How many are still been oppressed even in their own homes? Should all Nigerians bear up arms?
What business do they have on major/main roads? These guys are so stupid they don't even know when they're wrong.
Who is forcing them ...when they are killing others
What a threat... Unfortunately, they have immunity
Y would anybody want to fight dem
Are herders in Nigeria operating under a different Company and Allied Matters Act? How much do they contribute in tax?
Ehen?
Okay
What audacity in the cattle ranch! So their business is destruction? No one is stopping anyone's legitimate business but claiming to do business by destroying other people's businesses and taking over their properties is inanity and psychopathy taken too far.
They will fight back and go Scot free because they have immunity
Ngwa nu, owners of the country have spoken. Mtchewww 🤨
When Jonathan gave Asari Dokubo & Co money, they bought Hummer jeeps and expensive toys. Now miyetti Allah used their own money to buy weapons and you are wondering why northern Nigeria is still powerful?
Can't the herders move with time? Most they be stuck in the last century?
Yes they will fight back Abi! OK because BUAHARI is giving support and when we also defend ourselves buahari send Army to arrest and kill us OK ,soon they will know
This govt is empowering and protecting this miyetti allah that’s why they have the odacity to issue this threat to our national peace.. if we as a nation do not stand up to defend what we have left as a nation then we are in big trouble
We done enter am for this country
This statement is wrong.. I expect mayetti herders should seek for a ranch from the government rather than issuing comments that can literally ignite clash. Smhh
They will fight back because the government of MBuhari allowed them to use guns.
For God's sake, buy land and start a ranch, We buy your meet, you feed with free grass and other peoples farm plants, fruits and vegetables, This is not fair.
But they the right to force farmers out of business? God please blow the trumpet 😭😭😭😭
Okay... So it's a business? What if they force farmers out of theirs?
Buhari has helped these terrorists to assume an opioid induced and hallucinatory, above the law image...
And in what way do they intend to fight back 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️Can you just imagine this people They have become so bold to even threaten National peace I don’t blame them they are being paid in billions to stop killing people well here they go again threatening National peace
U mean u will kill more,we get you, now you have 100b naira to buy more arms, thanks to your leader MBuhari u will all perish
...fight who...innocent defenseless people ... that’s not fighting back.. that’s wanton destructions and mindless killings which are criminal acts.There exists appropriate channel for expression and attendance to grievances
Coz they are having backup from the present government, if not they should be treated as terrorists coz thats what they are.
