Fulanis have made up their mind to take over Nigeria – Ortom

Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has said the Fulani ethnic group has concluded plans to take over Nigeria.

Ortom said the Fulanis are having the support of President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government.

Ortom, who appeared on Arise TV on Wednesday morning, said this while speaking on the insecurity in Benue.

He said, “It is not just about a certain local government area, It is about the entire state, it is about the entire country, Nigeria.

“Tell me where else, is it in Zamfara, where the Hausa people live and the Fulanis have decided to take over the land.

“Is it in Kaduna, where the indigenous people were either traditionalist or Christians now they have been taken over.

“Is it in the South East or in the Middle BeIt where the Fulanis have decided that they are going to take over this country and actively they have been supported by the present government of President Muhammadu Buhari

“Like I said, I know they are not happy, we know they are angry. But that is the truth. Even if I am dead, let it be on record just like Martin Luther King of America who stood for the grass and said the truth. I am ready to do it.

“This is the truth the Fulanis have made up their mind to take Nigeria as their own country and using Islam as a tool to ensure that they are in control.
