We can't A Have Country Called Nigeria If Fulani Herdsmen Are Asked to Leave the South – Northern Senators

Northern Senators led by Senator, Abdullahi Adamu (APC) representing Nasarawa West in a communique recently released have warned that there will be no "Nigeria" if the South-east especially continues to call for Fulani Herdsmen to vacate their communities.

In the communique read by Senator Adamu, they said:
“There would be no country called Nigeria, if other parts of the country asked Fulani herdsmen to leave their communities and states. We therefore warn everybody, including Governors to desist from making inflammatory remarks. A governor is a community leader. The only difference is that he has a label called governor.
“If you don’t mind, attacks by Fulani Herdsmen in recent times started with the West when elder statesman, Chief Olu Falae, had some very nasty experience. It was attributed at the time to Fulani herdsmen. At the end, those people were apprehended and they were not Fulanis.

“This thing has been going on in virtually all parts of the country today. If we now say that everybody should rise and say herdsmen should leave, we will not have a country.”
