Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, says herders carry weapons because they need to protect themselves. The governor ascribed the practice to the failure of society and government to guarantee the safety of herders while in the forest.
The governor, who spoke on Thursday, February 11, in Bauchi, said, “Because the Fulani man is practising the tradition of pastoralism, he has been exposed to the vagaries of the forest, cattle rustlers who carry guns, kill him and take away his commonwealth, which is the cows.
He has no option than to carry AK47 because the society and the government are not protecting him, what is his fault; it’s the fault of the government and the people. You don’t criminalize all of them, because, in every tribe, there are criminals.”

IN THAT CASE ALL THE PEOPLE THAT ARE BEING ATTACKED BY SOME CRIMINALS CALLED FULANIS SHOULD ALSO CARRY BOMB, JUJU, MACHETTE AND RIFFLES FOR THEIR OWN PROTECTIONS AS WELL. FISH BRAIN.

Nigeria is a FAILED State now, every citizen must carry AK 47 for their own protection. Those in the federal government support and sponsor terrorists groups, the honest and patriotic people must defend themselves.
