Ortom: Buhari Behind Plot For Fulani To Take Over Nigeria |The Source

By Uche Mbah

Still angry over recent killings of Benue state residents by herdsmen in the state, widely believed to be Fulani militia, Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, Tuesday pointed fingers at President Muhammadu Buhari, accusing him of being the mastermind of the killings based on his silence and body language.

“What is happening now, to me, is very clear; Mr. President is just working for these Fulanis to take over the whole country”, he fumed.

“His body language is what is being played out,” the governor alleged while condemning the activities of herdsmen in the state.

“The body language, the action, and inaction of Mr. President shows that he is only the President of the Fulani people; I have known this.

“We are becoming a banana republic, if we have a president who gave the security agencies order to shoot at sight, whosoever is having AK-47 and the Minister of Defence came out to say that they cannot shoot at sight… so who is the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces?”

Security has broken down in recent times all over Nigeria, with gunmen going on a rampage, either as herdsmen or  militia in an unprecedented run.

For example, just in one day, eight policemen were killed in Kebbi state,  six Policemen killed in Imo state,  two soldiers killed in Ebonyi state,  five soldiers killed in Rivers,  seven IDPs killed in Benue, and a High Court burnt in Ebonyi state.

Boko Haram has been confirmed to control one  Niger LGA, hoisted its flag there, according to the State,   and its fighters a mere two hours drive to Abuja, according to Niger State Governor, Abubakar Sani Bello.

Ortom also claimed that Fulanis have placed Fatwa on him.

The Governor said over seventy people have been killed in his state

“Mr. President must rise up, he is the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and over the 250 nationalities that are in this country; Mr. President is their President, we all voted him”, he said.

“He has taken the oath of office to secure the country and provide security for lives and property; this is unacceptable, this cannot continue,” the visibly worried governor said.

“Mr. President must rise up to address the nation himself, not Garba Shehu or any of his assistance. Mr. President must tell us where we are going in this country, this is too much.”
