Following the spate of attacks especially in the Northern part of Nigeria, Kebbi State Governor, Abubakar Bagudu, has revealed that any group that carry arms and terrorise the citizens should be declared terrorists.
The Governor said while responding to a question on a programme on Channels TV on Thursday.
According to him, “I believe whoever in an organised manner is holding arms and terrorising people should be declared terrorists.”
“It is regrettable and condemnable that we have any killer herdsmen and we must mobilize as a populace to confront this evil.”
“Governor Ortom is mischaracterizing the challenge. People who are conversant with Benue State know that there are a number of challenges that have been affecting Benue State.”
He Opined: “For instance, there are inter-communal conflicts in the state leading to the death of people. There are conflicts between the Jukus and Tivs, Agwatus and Nassarawa Egun and then there is the herder-farmer clashes.”
