Some politicians behind herdsmen, farmers’ clashes in Nigeria - Miyetti Allah leader Bodejo

Alhaji Bello Abdullahi, the president of Fulani socio-cultural association known as Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, has reportedly accused politicians in Nigeria of being behind the frequent feuds between Fulani herdsmen and farmers.

Daily Sun reports that Bodejo said this in Sokoto on Tuesday, December 18 while speaking with journalists.

Bodejo noted that the farmers and herdsmen have always had issues but that there had been a traditional way of resolving such.

“But unlike before that these feuds happen and resolve immediately. Politicians now use it as ways of causing disaffections between Fulani race and other tribes.

“You will see someone taken pictures from accident scenes and before you know, post it on social media claiming Fulani helmsmen are responsible for the killings,” Bodejo said, while emphasizing that the real herdsmen do not carry arms apart from their sticks.

The report also quoted Bodejo as accusing government at all levels of being insensitive to the plights of the Fulani herdsmen.

“The Nigerian government has been insensitive to the plights of Fulani herdsmen across the country in-spite contributing of great immense to the nation’s economy through their held business.

“Let the Federal Government brings back the grazing reserves across the country. We have national and international cattle routes across the country.

“These are the rights of Fulani as citizens. I agreed that cattle rearing is a personal business but governments must look for ways of easing business for these herders.

“If government can disbursed billions of naira as loans to petty traders across the country which are personal business, then they (governments) should also look at what they can do to ease Fulani herders in their cattle rearing business,” he suggested.
