The Chairman, North Central zone of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders’ Association of Nigeria (MACBAN), Danladi Ciroma, has reacted to the recent attacks on Plateau villages by suspected herdsmen where 86 persons were killed.
According to Dailypost, Ciroma said: “These attacks are retaliatory. As much as I don’t support the killing of human being, the truth must be told that those who carried out the attacks must be on revenge mission.
There have been recent reports of cow rustling and destruction of farms between Berom farmers and Fulani herdsmen. The people carrying out these criminal activities are well known to the communities but they are hiding them.
Herdsmen have lost about 300 cows in the last few weeks – 94 cows were rustled by armed Berom youths in Fan village, another 36 cows were killed by Berom youths. In addition to that, 174 cattle were rustled and the criminals disappeared with them to Mangu.
Since these cows were not found, no one should expect peace in the areas. Even soldiers that went after the criminals to recover the rustled cows were shot by the armed rustlers.
The government of Governor Lalong has done a lot to restore peace, but the criminal elements hiding among their people are the ones frustrating these peace efforts.
Though the security agencies have tried, they need to do more by being fair to all parties; they should not neglect any report presented by Fulani of Berom because such report can lead to attacks and deaths if not properly handled.
Criminals thrive a lot in Berom communities, but when the Fulani, who are always victims of their crime, react with attacks, they blame the government. These communities have leaders, why hide the criminals?
They should fish out the criminals and hand them over to security agencies to avoid death of innocent ones. As it is today, the Berom man cannot go to farm, the Fulani cannot breed his cows.
This can be stopped if the security agencies do more than what they are currently doing. The attacks will stop as soon as the security agencies stop Berom youths from stealing Fulani cows.”

You should have made this known to authorities and if indeed its been reported, these herdsmen shouldn’t take the laws of the land into their own hands by killing individuals who are known or unknown to such thievery.
It is high time therefore, people of Africa should be told to live as humans.
It is a disgrace to read this piece of atrocities in Nigeria.
Remember, Nigeria is Africa and whatever is written about goes on to paint Africa good or bad. Life of a human surpassed the life of millions cow. Seen see right next time.
Those gangsters who stole the cows must be arrested and see that the law takes its course.
Same way with those who murdered innocent people.
That’s means you know the people who did this too much.. And if u know them by can’t u tell the authority.. Why the taking the low in there hand.
This miyatti man should be arrested its obvious he knows the criminals behind this killings,comparing human life’s with cows,what a lawless country.
Is bad but why must they invite trouble to the community? Individual difference, both cow & human being re vkue based on the owner.
Uhmmmmm I see hw heartless people have become to the extend of comparing animal live to human life, may God help us

Let us be wise and understand what is happened with Gods created brains.
I wonder o. We all cannot sleep n place our heads in 1 direction. They have forgotten that any plan by some powerful minority 2 forcefully islamize this country will eventually meet a waterloo. Psalm 127:1.
That Is To Say Those Fulani’s Regard Common Catles Than Humanbeigns
Blame which rustler. How would u compare a cow with human live… We all have at a point stolen even if its a common pin. Why did d owner of the pin did not kill u… Perhaps the dead people now are innocent souls(mothers,children,men)

It is very unfortunate that Nigeria has degenerated to this level where human lives do not have value again and can be compared with that of animals, this is embarrassing and can only happen in a country like our where people are too religious but ungodly. This was not the plan of our finding fathers, the late Sardauna of Sokoto and Sir Tafawa Balewa, under them, the North was one and there was no discrimination against any northerner be a Moslem or Christian, it was after their exit that evil people brought the issues of religion and tribalism in and ever since then we have not had peace. Conclusively, I think until when people start to realise and understand their differences, the incessant killings will not stop in the middle belt areas. It is not that we Yorubas in the Western region do not have our own differences especially on religion but we Moslems are more tolerant and matured. May God almighty take control.
My dear Nigerians, I always submit mist humbly that we should be wary about what we read and the comments therefrom. I won’t know who actually killed who but am so sure that the killings are from two sides. My very sincere take is that from that and other incidents, it’s very clear that ungodly Muslins and Christians kill at ease so beyond all these Secretariat comments, I think we should reflect on hownd devil has been able to penetrate our heard a and souls so much that wencould raise weapons against ourselves to the extent of being able to withstand d state of mind to kill fellow human being. God knows that I can even kill a fowl that I buy for eating because I will be so mentally and psychologically guilty that I won’t be able to eat d meat. Please dear brothers and sisters, let’s start thinking of how to enhance human sympathy in our hearts through all these mighty religious buildings and bodies, tribal associations and civil organizations towards enthroning Godliness rather than split comments at each carnage. My heart bleeds for d reposed souls because there can never be any justification for stopping a human being to continue to live when u can’t even make a hair in his or her body. How do I raise weapons against a persons who I don’t even know? God shall liberate Nigeria from d devils around, amin.
