Ex PC Alleges What Is Worse Than Boko Haram

Ikechukwu Aduba, former Delta state police commissioner, has insisted there is something more dangerous than terrorism in Nigeria.

According to Nigerian Guardian, the retired officer raised alarm over the illegal activities of Fulani cattle rearers and urged President Muhammadu Buhari to address the situation before it is too late.

Aduba explained why this problems is even “worse than Boko Haram”as he spoke in an interview in Asaba:

“It is a serious issue, more complicated than the terrorists activities in the Northeast. Boko Haram war is a minor issue when compared with what we are going to experience in the hands of Fulani cattle rearers in the nearest future if the issue is not addressed.

“In some places, especially in Delta state where I served as the commissioner of police, many people cannot go to the farm anymore for fear of being attacked in the bush by cattle rearers. Many women have been raped in front of their husbands and children. Many people killed by the cattle rearers. It is a pathetic situation if cattle eat up people’s crops in the farm and the farm owner challenges them, it is a big problem. If the farm owner keeps quite, his toil for the year will be in vain. It is a wearisome situation.

“The action is affecting agricultural businesses as communities are afraid to go to the farm for the fear that one day, all their labour for one year will be eaten up in one day by cattle. If a community is afraid that their loved may go to the farm and not return, how do you expect them to go to the farm where they may meet their untimely death? This is a serious and pathetic situation that is worse than Boko Haram. They will soon overrun the entire country.

“I want to advice that President Muhammadu Buhari and the National Assembly should constitute a committee that would look into the issue. My suggestion is that the cattle rearers should be confined in gracing reserves and ranches. They should be made to stay in a particular area and not to wander from place to place.

“If you look at it critically, we don’t eat beef more than other countries of the world. We don’t have cow more than other countries. We don’t export cow, yet in the countries that even export cow, there is absolute peace because they don’t take their cattle to places that they are not supposed to take them. The Nigerian government should take a decisive stands on the matter or the keg of gun powder will explode and the government will now not be able to tackle the menace of the cattle rearers.”

Meanwhile multiple explosions rocked Maiduguri on Sunday, September 20, killing scores of people and injuring many others. It is believe to be the work of Boko Haram insurgents, who use female bombers to carry out the attacks.
