Controversial Nigerian journalist, Kemi Olunloyo has paddled into the dispute caused by the killings reportedly carried out by Fulani herdsmen across the country.
The journalist is against the fact that the Fulani herdsmen are dangerous compared to the IPOB group, saying that the Fulani herdsmen has done nothing wrong to be tagged a terrorist group, but rather it is because of the hate Nigerians have towards the president because he is of the Fulani tribe.
She wrote,
“To say Nigerian Fulanis are a violent group is an exaggeration. The Fulanis have been quietly grazing and herding the beef most of u gulp at your ‘owambe’ events. The root of the ongoing problem goes deeper than ethnicity. Fulani herdsmen are being targeted as terrorists because of one single reason. The president is from that ethnic tribe. If u don’t like Mr. Buhari, then vote him out instead of accusing him of not controlling a whole tribe. Can Osinbajo control all the Yoruba people? Stop castigating the Nigerian Fulani I will never be afraid of nobody in Nigeria. The IPOB boys were more dangerous looking for mayhem. Many were my errand boys at PHMax & told me Nnamdi Kanu even told them to Rape women and cause ethnic mayhem. Not all Igbos are IPOB.”
Her post has been heavily criticized by fans claiming she is just looking for cheap publicity or favors from the president.
She had earlier stated that she has desire to be in politics in the national level, well this could be a step to achieving that.
