Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of assisting the Fulani ethnic group in taking over Nigeria.
He also bemoaned the fact that 70 people had been killed in three local governments in the state in the last two weeks.
The governor, who said that the killings must stop, stated, “What is happening now to me is very clear; Mr President is simply preparing for these Fulanis to take over the whole world.”
“What is being played out is his body language.
“We are now a Banana Republic, if we have a President who gave the security agencies the order to shoot at sight, whoever is carrying an AK-47 and the Minister of Defence came out to say that they cannot shoot at sight… then who is the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces?”
The governor claims that the people of Benue are being oppressed and running out of patience due to the incessant attacks on their communities.
“Mr President must rise up, he is the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and over the 250 nationalities that are in this country; Mr President is their President, we all voted him.
“He has taken oath of office to secure the country and provide security for lives and property; this is unacceptable, this cannot continue,” the governor stated.
