“Don’t carry AK-47” – Bauchi Gov begs Herdsmen
Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed has appealed to Fulani herdsmen not to carry AK-47 riffles but remain peaceful.
Speaking at the launch of the 2020/2021 annual livestock vaccination campaign held at the Galambi Cattle Ranch, Bauchi, on Wednesday, the Governor, who has been at the forefront of media discussions in recent days, described the Fulani people as humble, simple, and humane adding that he will do everything to support them because they mean well.
He said, “What I will do, I will not say it here, but I will do everything possible to make sure I protect you and lend support to you because I know you mean well.
“Through time and history, you have been seen to be cajoled, and lampooned but you remained humane, you remained simple, you don’t show so much aggression and of course, that humility is always what we recognized and this is what a character that should always try to show.
“Please, don’t carry the AK-47 that I made a figurative allusion to. Try to make sure that you remain peaceful.”
Governor Mohammed, however, stated that he has no apology for kicking against profiling of Fulani herders as criminals.
You are the one who asked them to Carry AK 47 before and also you are the one who will appeal to them.
If they want to Carry AK 47, they should move to bauchi state and do whatever they like.
idiot…. you are now going back on your words….
