The Fulani herdsmen are foot soldiers used by the Nigerian government to terrorize and occupy the territories that Usman Danfodio did not conquer and occupy in the country. This can be seen and justified by the way the government is supporting the Fulani herdsmen killing of innocent people and occupying their lands after the destruction of villages and their farmlands. The zeal of the government in trying to establishing cattle colonies in all parts of the country especially in the southern and middle belt parts, that are mainly Christians dominated is part of the plan.
The Nigerian government plans to use Fulani herdsmen to carry out their plan of occupation and Islamization of the whole land because Fulani herdsmen as nomads can move from one place to another in a short time. To make it much easier, the government champions the issue of grazing land for the nomads. Fulani people believe that they have not finished the conquest of the country that is why there are the recent killings in Benue state and the plateau in which not less than two hundred persons lost their lives. This is because the Tivs resisted the conquest of Tiv land by their forefathers and they want to conquer them now.
Fulani man that marries four wives is a valuable tool to propagate the Islamization agenda because in a shorter time they can multiply geometrically and surpass the population of the original people of the particular place they occupy. This process of occupying the country was designed to be gradual by first putting a Fulani herdsman as a president of Nigeria, and they succeeded in putting one, Mohammad Buhari, who also happened to be the grand patron of the umbrella body of Fulani herdsmen known as ‘Miyatti Allah’.
But due to the emergence of a voice from Radio Biafra London, in the person of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, who came informing and educating people on the impending danger of the agenda of the Fulanis, to occupy the country. He, therefore, called for the restoration of the sovereign state of Biafra, which will make it impossible for the Fulani to occupy the land of the people of Biafra. Coincidentally, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s message made them to hasten the process, hence the rampant killings in many parts of the country.
