| It started some days back, when the Fulani's invaded some Tiv's settlement in some villages in Doma, Nasarawa State, thereby destroying their farm produce. This annoyed the Tiv's who have been tolerant all this while. They (Tivs) started killing the Fulani's cattle and to worsen it, their women picked the carcasses to cook. This resulted in a heavy crisis between the two ethnic group. Many of the rural dwellers who are Tivs have packed out of the villages because of fear of the Fulani's, who, when they catch them, they butcher and amputate. They have promised total war for the Tivs as they have made arrangements with their neighbours in Niger Republic to come & help them fight.
The Fulani cattle rearers are known for their dubious act of amputation. They enter into people's farms and destroy crops and when apprehended, they bring out their razor-blade-of-a-cutlass and cut off victim's hands.
The Fulani's have the heart of a devil. They prefer losing their children to losing a cow. |
