…Says Fulani wants to take over Nigeria
Says,“I have sent copy of the document to the president, police, DSS. The FUNAM said they wanted this revolution in 1800 but could not achieve it through Usman Danfodio.
Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has again accused the Fulani of causing insecurity in the country by their ploy to take over Nigeria forcefully adding that this is the actual reason of insecurity in Nigeria.
Governor Ortom dropped the shells via the BBC Pidgin broadcast at the weekend to avoid the prying eyes and lethal punches of the National Broadcasting Commission which would have shut down the Station.
He said confidently that the agenda of Fulani herdsmen in Nigeria is to conquer the entire nation and insisted he has documents to back up his claims.
According to him, the Fulani Nationality Movement who claimed responsibility for his recent attack said that Nigeria is their only country.
He said, “Fulani Nationality Movement, FUNAM were the people who attempted to kill me recently. They said Nigeria is the only country that belongs to them. It is written and I have the document.
“I have sent copy of the document to the president, police, DSS. The FUNAM said they wanted this revolution in 1800 but could not achieve it through Usman Danfodio.
“They claimed that they have the power, money and all it takes to achieve it”.
Ortom, who has been in a face-off with the presidency over his criticism of President Muhammadu Buhari’s inability to tackle the security challenges facing the nation, lamented that terrorism is beginning to take over the country like Afghanistan and other warring countries in the world.
“The terrorism that we used to hear in faraway countries like Afghanistan, Iraq and other warring countries has surfaced in Nigeria.
“And as it is, it seems the presidency is in support of what is happening because it is not saying anything.
“Like I always say, if the Federal Government has the power to stop secessionists like Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Igboho then they should have the power to stop banditry and terrorism in the country too.
“They call the attackers unknown gunmen but for me, I know that they are Fulani people coming to kill us. And the presidency is involved in this agenda.
“The Fulani people have claimed that they want to capture the entire country”, he added.
