Cattle-rearer Fulani group, Miyeti Allah, has threatened to unleash violence if any of its members are harmed.
The spokesman of the group, Saleh Alhassan, stated on Sunday, February 14, saying “nobody has right to evict herdsmen.”
According to Alhassan, Fulani herders will resist eviction and there will be retaliation for any killing of Fulani herders in the southern part of the country.
Alhassan also lauded the Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed on herders carrying AK-47 for self-defence.
The Miyetti Allah said: “Nobody has the right to evict herdsmen. If you say you are going to evict us, we will resist eviction. We have been surviving in harsh environments. If we do not resist, we will be wiped out of the planet.
“If you kill a herder, don’t go and sleep, we will revisit you, and it’s not because we hate your tribe. People attack herders, and in one way or the other, herders have found a way to retaliate.”
