Herders of Fulani extraction have been recently accused of kidnapping and killings in some parts of the country and in some places they have been attacked and given quit notices.
But in a statement signed by Bashir Tofa, the National Republican Convention (NRC) candidate in the annulled June 12, 1993 presidential election, and 22 others, they asked that said criminality shouldn’t be attached to only one particular ethnic group.
“The on-going profiling of the Fulani and the Hausa as the causal factors of the current challenges facing the country must be condemned by all. The words and action of certain individuals and a section of the media reducing criminality to a particular ethnic group is a serious threat to national cohesion,” the statement read.
