Bauchi Governor Blasts South-West Governors

Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State has lambasted other governors who are against Fulani herdsmen.

He said: “The governor that is most wrong is the governor of Benue State, my brother and colleague Governor Samuel Ortom; he started all these.”

“If you don’t accommodate other tribes, we are also accommodating your tribes in Bauchi and other places. We have so many Tiv people farming in Alkaleri, in Tafawa Balewa, farming in Bogoro LGAs; has anybody told them to go?”

“We have not; because it’s their own inalienable rights to be there. We have Yoruba people in Bauchi, for over 150 years, even before the birth of Nigeria; some of them have risen to become permanent Secretaries in Bauchi, in Gombe and in Borno.”

“You can see what our colleagues in the south-west and some from the south-east are doing. If cybercrime is practised by one tribe, you don’t criminalise all the tribe that they are criminals.”
