hate against herders

05:08 Jul 6 2018 Benue, Nigeria

Description

My God, somebody should wake me up from sleep. I can’t believe this. So other tribes have to hustle day and night to purchase a piece of land while Fulani herdsmen gets it free or kill the owner and nothing will happen. It’s obvious that this imbecile is trying to justify the killings by the herders. This dunce is telling me indirectly that Nigeria belongs to the Fulanis( the born to rule) alone. What madness? No Fulani will preside over the affair of this country again. I can’t call it a nation because it’s never one.
