(Daily Post) The Federal Government has ruled out the use of military might to subdue the attacking force of rampaging Fulani herdsmen.
Minister of Interior, Gen. Abdulrahman Dambazau, retd, while featuring on a Channels Television programme, “Question Times” on Sunday night said deployment of the military to combat the Fulani herdsmen menace was not an option because, the situation has not overwhelmed the police yet.
According to the Minister, “We must protect the country which is the main function of the police. The Civil Defence are there to complement them too.
“This is a non-military issue that borders on law and order. It is not every security issue that you call in the military. It is the responsibility of the police to maintain peace. I believe that if we put the police in proper position in terms of discharging its functions, then there would be no need for military option. The police are equal to the task. If you have to deploy the army, then you are going above board. In any case, I do not even have the power to deploy the military for anything. It is only when the situation gets out of hand that you invite the military.”
Recall that Fulani herdsmen have in recent past attacked several villages across the country, killing scores of people.

    WHAT KIND OF HYPOCRITICAL COUNTRY ARE WE? YOU SAY, ONE UNITED COUNTRY, BUT YOU USE TWO DIFFERENT LAWS FOR SIMILAR ISSUES. YOU USE ARMY TO KILL ARMLESS PROTESTERS, EVEN THOSE ON PRAYER GROUND, BUT YOU HARBOR AND PAMPER RAMPAGING FULANI HERDSMEN,
    THESE ARE REASONS WE ARE SUPPORTING NIGER-DELTA AVENGERS. WHETHER YOU ARE MY BLOOD BROTHER IN NIGERIAN ARMY, IF YOU COME TO NIGER-DELTA TO FIGHT NDA, I SUPPORT YOU DON’T RETURN HOME ALIVE.
    FOR YOU, THE CERTIFICATELESS OLD FOOL @ 74, BUHARI, YOU WILL NOT RETURN TO THE COUNTRY ALIVE FROM THAT YOUR EAR IRRITANT PROBLEM YOU’RE EMBARKING ABROAD. YOU WILL DIE THERE, AND GIVE PEACE A CHANCE. That is our prayer for you Buhari, IDIOT!

    You can see how these ethnocentrics are dividing this country along tribal & religious line & yet pretending. You won’t use military force against armed herdsmen killing people & destroying villages but you will use military,DSS force against unarmed peaceful protesters(MASSOB,IPOB,BIM members) because they are Igbos/Christians. The world should see this ANIMAL FARM called Nigeria where some animals are more equal than others. I weep for Nigeria.

    Almajiri Danbazau, note that no condition is permanent. At the latest by 30 June 2023, the bloodthirsty, certificateless vampire from Daura will either expire like Abacha or vacate Aso Rock. From that moment, Almajiri Danbazau and the rest beasts in human form from Core North like him will learn to live in peace with others.

    what is this man saying, is he with his senses? so, Biafra’s issue has overwhelmed the police? Is the world seeing the injustice being perpetrated by Buhari’s govt? Please the human rights organization should report this matter to the United Nations as a further evidence against the govt’s deliberate injustice against certain sections of the Nigeria society.
