30 INNOCENT HERDSMEN ARRESTED AND A DOZEN COWS SHOT DEAD BY SWAD (MEN IN UNIFORM) IN NASARAWA STATE :
Report reaching the NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS of MIYETTI ALLAH KAUTAL HORE SOCIOCULTURAL ASSOCIATION of NIGERIA indicates that not fewer than Thirty (30) innocent Fulani Pastoralists where arrested and unconfirmed number of cattles where shot dead respectively by the Special Anti Robbery and Kidnapping Squad of the Nigerian Police Force also known as SWAD today in Lafia LGA of Nasarawa State.
Innocent herdsmen coming back from the market and even those on transit on motor bikes where arrested indiscriminately and taken to the state CID of Nasarawa state police command.
As at the time of writing this report , some of the arrested herdsmen have been released.
This type of indiscriminate arrest and detention of innocent herdsmen and released only on bail after paying heavy amount of money is uncalled for and totally not accepted.
This is not going to help in addressing the rotten security issues rather it will worsen it.
Enough is enough of this hatred !.
We are using this medium to call the attention of the Government of Nasarawa State to do justice to the aforementioned jungle justice bedeviling the FULANI Pastoralists in Nasarawa.
Just recently a leader of the Fulanis in Nasarawa Alh Mohammed Hussaini and his counterpart where assasinated in a broad daylight and upto now nothing was done
